Verdict

SYDNEY GAL (4) continues to race well, winning here two back before a close-up fifth last time. Onto the home track here and drawn well. Expected to be tough to hold out late. MISSILE MEG (3) turned in a nice run fresh before disappointing last time. Change of rider and drawn for a good run gets chance to atone. INEZ (2) was solid in this grade last time when running on hard. Going well enough and another who will be charging home late. AMPHACTOR (1) did enough fresh and strips fitter. Doesn't win often but draw for a soft run and should get every chance. JAYZEAL (8) will find this easier and could improve.
