Verdict

LOFTY THOUGHTS (3) goes on top. The first-up run from this Alex Rae-trained 3yo was good at Murray Bridge, running on strongly from too far back to grab a narrow third. He showed good ability early doors and looks nicely placed second up. TOO TOUGH (5) resumed from a spell with a smart maiden win as favourite at Moe having shown ability in two runs last time in. He's progressive and can go on with the job. GALLANT PRINCE (2) struggled last time here over 7f and comes back slightly in trip now. His form prior was rock solid and he can figure in the finish. ASIATIC (8) resumes. She won her maiden first up last time in and handles all ground. She can prove hard to hold out. I SAID SO (12) went to the paddock a winner and can run well fresh.
