Verdict

The well-related NOW IS THE HOUR (12) (full to 2xG3 winner and G2 placed Inkaruna) is an honest commodity who is yet to miss the top-five in eight career outings and has won two of three since joining the Gollan yard. Is one from one over this course and distance and maps perfectly for this from gate two. Looks the hardest to toss. FIRST MISSION (4) loves this six-furlong trip with two wins and three seconds from just six attempts. Gets 7lbs weight relief with the claim and cannot be discounted. MEAN APPROACH (6) strips fitter third-up from the spell and has placed four of six around this circuit. A must for the multiples. SHOT OF WHISKEY (3) is on the doorstep of another victory with four consecutive runner-up finishes. In the mix. EXTREME DIAMOND (15) makes some appeal out of the Maher camp.
