Verdict

TOWER BRIDGE (3) looks the one to beat. He's a progressive colt in his first campaign, off a let up for this having won his maiden dominantly two back at Geelong, trying hard behind a talented one last time out with gaps behind. He sets up nicely here and can return to winning ways. YAMASHITA'S GOLD (4) resumes. He's a handy sort who won his maiden two stats before the break, not disgraced in a very strong BM64 at Sandown Hillside next time out. This suits. COMMANDS SUCCESS (1) is racing well without winning this time around, solid last time at Cranbourne in third. He has each way claims again. SYMPHONY OF COLOUR (2) can improve off an even showing first up at Sandown Hillside having shown ability last time in. HOTSPUR REALE (5) is going well and gets a nice run.
