Verdict
#1 Can't Go Wong drops back into Class 5 for the first time in a long while, a grade where he is one from one. Barrier 2 gives Zac Purton the chance to secure one of the better runs in transit and makes him the one to beat. #4 Kingly Demeanor should roll forward from barrier 9 and look to pinch this from the front. If he can dictate without facing too much pressure, he will take plenty of catching. #5 Ocean Impact has barrier 11 to overcome, but the first drop into Class 5 is significant for a proven track-and-distance performer. Early luck would bring him right into contention. #8 Good Luck Win is an interesting stable switch to Pierre Ng and warrants a close watch.

Verdict
SNOW SNIPER made his introduction in February behind high class Rich Man's World and made his comeback last month when making solid improvement. He should prefer the extra and can go close. REDFORD is another with a big chance. He has met classy sorts in all three of his outings and has run well over 1200m so should be suited to the track and trip. GREEN SENSATION could be one with much more to come in his second start. He is very well bred and wasn't beaten too far in a decent form race. Many first-timers to watch out for, many have drawn well.
Top Tip:
Redford

Verdict
This 1500-metre turf claiming race carries a $4,000 purse. RELAMPAGO is the central figure, having finished second in four of his last five starts. He meets PEPPERONI, a winner three starts back who benefits from a top rider. LONGO AMOR arrives in steady form and adds depth to the finish. While ONE YEARS and LUCA BAMBINO have shown flashes of talent recently, they must find more to trouble the principals. RELAMPAGO finally finds a winning opportunity to break his sequence of second-place finishes.
