Verdict

HARD SHELL (8) massive effort on debut when closed late at the big odds for a respectable sixth over 1200m at Kembla Grange. Looking for extra trip and no excuses in this very average race. ALAMAGAN (6) best effort in three career starts when he closed late to run fourth over 1200m at Canberra. This looks a weaker race and capable of testing some of these. CREATOR OF WORLD (7) comes back a level today after disappointing in two runs on the provincial tracks. Poorly drawn and not without each way claims. BELLEISTIC BONNY (11) went back from the wide draw on debut when a plugging sixth over 1200m at Nowra. Gets a better set-up for this and look for a major form reversal.
