1. Minus Looks | Beaten by four lengths last start at Geraldton and blinkers come off for the first time. All wins have come when faced with dry ground. Expect to be right up there. |
2. Trade Talk | Coming to a new trainer and nine from 10 wins have been in the dry. Alan Kennedy a bonus. Among the chances. |
3. Kenyluck | Can't knock the form winning two in a row at Geraldton and has very strong form at the track. Major contender. |
4. Calabria Joe | Amongst the placegetters first two attempts this prep and amongst the placegetters last start running third at Geraldton. six of eight wins have come from dry ground. Well placed. |
5. Fetch More Ammo | |
6. Startthefriar | Resumes after an 18 week spell and proven first-up winning two from five when fresh. No wins in three past runs at Geraldton. Hard to get enthused. |
7. Arabian Riches | Has placed in five runs from 10 this campaign but ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Geraldton. Drops in weight. In with a chance. |
8. Jupiter Rising | Unplaced in all six runs this prep and ran eighth last start at Geraldton. All six wins have come in the dry but this looks too strong. |
