Verdict

GOLD CHARIOT (3) finished a close fourth when resuming from a spell last start over this trip at Sandown-Hillside. Fitter for that outing and is a great chance to break his maiden status. IMMORTALISED (4) put the writing on the wall last time when third at Mildura over 7f. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. OMINOUS (6) was too bad to be true first-up when in the market here. Gets the blinkers on now and a key booking in a hungry Ethan Brown. Sharp improvement anticipated. QUEENS OF VINO (9) continues to leave herself with too much to do but has been hitting the line hard. Stretching to the mile should suit. Watch for her running on late.
