Verdict

YELLOWKNIFE (8) is the one with upside, winning her maiden two back at Pakenham Synthetic before a sound effort at Wodonga last time out. She'll roll forward and give a sight, especially with the main danger coming out. Go close. EXPRESS GUARD (9) resumes off a short break. He can mix his form a bit but was contesting some stronger races last time in and should go well having won here prior. BRUTAL WORLD (13) is coming off a good win at Donald and looks to get a nice run on speed, can win again. ROSE OF SHALAA (11) is worth watching, now with Reece Goodwin who is good with these tried horses, she can run well.
