Verdict

CANDLELIGHT SHERIF (3) capped off some good form with a big win at Bunbury in his penultimate start before fighting on bravely for a midfield finish in a tougher contest here just over 3 weeks ago. He is much better placed at this level and despite the weight rise, he is the one to beat. PLAY FAIR (13) drew out to score a soft maiden win at Narrogin 2 starts back and then battled on strongly when running fourth here last week. The extra 600m is ideal and he can figure in the top 3. SANTA BRAE (2) is usually thereabouts at this level and kicked on resolutely in tight quarters when finishing sixth here 11 days ago in a better-quality field. Stick with him, even from a wide gate. INTERVENTION (9) is racing her way into full fitness and has not missed a cheque in 2 starts over this trip. She is ready to put her best hoof forward. Each-way value. ADMIRED (8) has been out of form and drops down in class here. He is not the worst at some big value.
