Verdict

Tricky race. THINK HARD (12) resumes off a solid jump-out win having run quite well behind the smart Thames in a decent maiden at this track and trip before a spell. She can improve this time in and should be hard to hold out. AREZZO (2) is a gelding by Zoustar on debut for the Hayes yard who has been jumping out consistently well. Top jockey booked and he's expected to be running well. PULA (10) is a well-bred filly by Pierro who debuts for the Danny O'Brien yard. She's been jumping out well of late and must be respected with Shinn booked. ROCK THEM JOOLS (5) is a gelding by Fastnet Rock on debut for the Chris Waller yard. Jump outs have just been fair but Damian Lane booked is a good lead. Respect. AQUEDUCT (1) has some ability and can figure.

Second run from a spell sat on the pace when 2nd of 12 at Yarra Valley 3yo Mdn-Sw on December 20 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind Garnacho with 58kg at $12. Racing well. Heading in the right direction and looks hard to beat.

On debut. Three-year-old gelding by Per Incanto out of Swing A Deel. At the most recent trial finished 11th at Ballarat over 900m. Doubt he will make an impression here so prefer others.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 11 at Murray Bridge 3yo+ Mdn-Sw on December 21 over 1000m, 4 len behind Dobbinair carrying 54.5kg at $4.60.

In the right race this time and shouldn’t be far away.
