Verdict

THE MIGHTY SPAR (1) is coming off a dominant win at Casterton over stablemate Prismatic who is entered earlier. He was far too good there, pulling away to score by seven lengths having been competitive behind the country's best steeplechaser Duke Of Bedford a couple of runs back. Has to concede them weight but may just be too strong. NOT USUAL DREAM (3) doesn't win many but has to be considered off a very good run in the Australian Steeplechase at Sandown Lakeside behind Stern Idol last start when third at $51. BLANDFORD LAD (2) was okay behind Stern Idol last time and is typically consistent. This looks a nice race for him. RAISE THE NOTE (7) switches to the bigger fences off two placings over the hurdles. Have to respect. CARNAMAH (5) next best.
