Verdict

EMERALD REWARD (4) has returned in great order this campaign adding another win to the tally last start in a brave front running performance. Has good tactical speed and is drawn to advantage. Expect him to give backers another great sight. TICK TOCK BOOM (11) was much better last start at Murray Bridge when chasing gamely to just miss the winner. Drops back to a winning trip and carries a feather with the 7lbs claimer engaged. Can give this a big shake. LOAD AND GO (8) hasn't been beaten far in his two runs back and should be ready to fire now. Can hold a prominent spot from the draw and should be ready to pounce when they sprint. CRANC (3) was well below his best last start but had been thereabouts prior. No reason he can't bounce back over the shorter journey off 33-day freshen.
