Verdict

UP THE DEN (4) brings the strongest recent form, having won a BM74 at Murray Bridge before missing by only a long neck in a BM80 at Morphettville, where he was a well-supported favourite in Saturday company. The drop into this BM68 suits and he can give this a shake. SANTASTICO (9) was only moderate when sixth in a BM64 at Gawler, but his previous second at Halidon was sound and the Todd Pannell combination is a significant plus given their record together. Include. SIR MYKA (6) has not won for a while but his two latest sevenths were both within a little over two lengths, and first-time blinkers give him a genuine chance to sharpen up. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. TOP CALIBRE (7) returns from a spell of five-and-a-half months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished ninth at Caulfield over 6f when first-up last time in work. Fitter for a fourth in a recent trial over 5f at Balaklava. Can measure up at the first run for a new barn.
