Verdict

TURBO TORQUE (3) has been on the doorstep of a maiden victory placing in three of his past four starts and this is not an overly strong affair. Will be ready to peak now third-up from the break and gets the services of Maloney in the irons. Rates the testing material. PIGGIETALES (6) returned in good order with a handy third over this track and trip and Lloyd stays on top following that first-up placing. Only needs some luck from the wide draw to be playing a role in the outcome. LADY TANGALOOMA (7) wasn't too far away in town on debut and will have derived a stack of benefit from that race day experience. Can improve enough to feature. SECRET ROSE (8) has been thereabouts in all four starts to date and looks a must for the multiples. The well-related NEWEVA (12) (full to G2 winner Chrysaor) next in line.
