Verdict

SHE'S IMPECCABLE (9) looks well placed here. Last time out wound up strong to place over the border at Mount Gambier over seven furlongs. First try at the mile but drawn for a soft run and expected to go close. ELEANOR DUMONT (7) was fair fresh then relished the extra ground last time for an impressive 7f maiden win at Warrnambool. Kept fresh since and should appreciate the extra ground. Can measure up again. THE DAILY PLANET (16) has been winding up strongly and looks one of the major players. Overdue for a win. WILD WILLY (5) has placed only try course and distance and looks tough to beat.
