Verdict
#4 Hot Delight is a proper talent on the rise after making it two from two last time, and this time next year he could be seriously in Classic Series conversations. The ratings climb comes quickly for these progressive types, but staying in Class 3 keeps him well placed for now before Class 2 tests arrive against older, more seasoned opposition. #3 Cool Boy is three from four and continues to do what is asked. A good trial since completing the hat-trick suggests his form remains intact. #2 Mickley has found his groove since dropping back to 1200m, settling back off the speed and finishing strongly when the tempo is on. #10 Matzden looks better suited ridden with more patience after being used early over 1400m last time and weakening late, and his earlier 1200m runs were the better guide.
