Verdict

REEVES is required to defy another career-high mark as he bids to record a five-timer and maintain his unbeaten record on the AW (4-4) in the process. However, that hasn't been a problem for him on either of his last two starts and the form of his most recent victory makes him the one to beat. The revitalised Ghaith is interesting as he is upped in grade after posting a pair of facile wins on the AW since joining David Loughnane, and it is difficult to have Calder Prince out of the placings given his consistent profile. One of the more unknown quantities in the field is Young Fire given how his latest piece of form ties in closely with that of the selection.
  1. Reeves
  2. Calder Prince
  3. Young Fire
