Verdict

ACTA NON VERBA (3) resumes with some attractive form lines. His form tapered off a bit towards the end of last campaign while mixing distances, but his last 6f run saw him run third to Just For Show at Moonee Valley which is very good form for this. SEA POEM (9) resumes. She showed plenty of promise in her first campaign, winning on debut, close up next time against the older horses as favourite. Has upside and should take beating. ZESTIMAN (1) found form two back with a rare win at Ballarat, okay last time in Adelaide. Each way. WORLD'S MY OYSTER (4) has won both starts to date and has to be respected again from a soft barrier while SHAMATEUR (7) got the maiden out of the way last time and has claims.
