Verdict

Local hope OLE GO (2) is an unraced Ole Kirk colt from the Hickmott yard who has shown above-average ability in his work, highlighted by a sharp Murray Bridge trial win. With Pannell sticking, he looks poised to make an immediate impact. EXPENSIVE TASTE (3) comes through the sharp McEvoy juvenile system and has been primed with two strong Flemington jump-out victories. Milnes should give the North Pacific filly every chance. BIG WIGS (1) is a Gold Standard colt on debut for the Stokes stable, prepared with two solid Victorian jump-outs. He's a half to G2-placed Cavity Bay, who leaned toward staying trips. Looks forward enough to make his presence felt. IMAGE ARTIST (4) made good late inroads on debut at Murray Bridge two weeks ago. Sure to have come on from that and boasts the experience edge.
