Verdict

A very competitive sprint handicap in which it may pay to stick with ZAC BROWN after an all-the-way success over a furlong further here in a good time. He's still well treated on last year's form and is equally suited by the minimum trip. There's likely to be a very strong pace on a track that can suit front-runners but Something Lucky has shown it's possible to come off the pace here and the race will suit his style. Poyle Vinnie deserves another win and is on a good mark dropping back in grade.
  1. Zac Brown
