Verdict

UNIVERSAL IMPACT (6) wasn't beaten far over this course and distance last start when 0.9L off the winner. The form out of that race has been franked and she'll carry no weight again after the claim of Tsang. Tricky alley, but she finds a suitable race to knock over her maiden. CEDAR LEAF (7) will be better for the run over this course and distance last start where she finished behind Universal Impact. She remains down in the weights and finished off nicely last start. May get back again but can be finishing strongly once more. SUPAROO (4) has plenty of upside and may improve getting out in trip now. He was disappointing last start but he's among friends in this event and can improve out in trip now. FLAVOURSOME (5) flew home over 7f last start and steps right out in trip now. Creates interest. SAUCISSON (2) wasn't beaten far last start despite being a 100-1 pop and won't be far away.
