Verdict

HELLINDA (4) smart gelding improving with age. Bounced off an unlucky Highway run, with a sharp on-pace win over 5 ?f at Gundagai with the 133lbs. Can go on with the job with Cole's claim and undefeated here. NOCTUA (9) back in trip after being nailed late with the 131lbs when second over 5 ½f at Nowra. At her top now and looks up to this tougher contest. FLIP THE SWITCH (7) Pakenham-trained mare racing in career best form. Chasing her third win from her last three starts. Covered ground with the 133lbs when a tenacious winner over 4 ?f at Swan Hill. Tags the good speed from the low draw. Top three chance. PRINCESS HALO (1) back in her right class after running a respectable sixth over 5f at Gundagai in the Tuckerbox. Winning rider sticks and goes well at this course and distance.
