Verdict

FLYING ARTIST (3) has come of age in this prep and made it 3 wins from his last 5 starts with a soft win at Cairns 11 days ago. He has won 3 times on this course and should cope with the slight class rise here. Ryan Wiggins sticks with him, and so do we. DOLLSON (1) is down slightly in class from his last start, and a 2kg claim will help with is weight rise. He can secure a soft trip early on and is expected to bounce back into the money here. BABY GUINNESS (5) just battled in the hands of an apprentice fresh up at a recent Home Hill picnic meeting and can improve sharply second up with a senior hoop in the saddle this time. Each way. WICKLOW LASS (6) clung on gamely to a well-deserved win by a nose here just over 3 weeks ago. She has an extra furlong to travel this time, and if she is saved up for one run, then she could have the last say. SPIRIT OF GIVING (2) hardly ever runs a bad race and has been a beaten favourite in his last couple of starts. Each way value again.
