Verdict

BIG TOUR is a very interesting runner dropping back to a sprint trip with Jason Watson claiming a valuable 3lb. He should be cherry ripe in fitness terms now and can get back to winning ways. Wentworth Falls will need everything to fall right but is very dangerous if getting a good pace to run at. Kenny The Captain gets in here off a nice racing weight and shouldn't be discounted.
  1. Big Tour
  2. Wentworth Falls
  3. Kenny The Captain
