Verdict

GOLDEN PATH ran resumed with a solid third last time at this track, racing on pace over a mile. He can drastically improve with fitness from first up to second up. KINGSWOOD was last seen in the Zipping Classic, where he potentially didn't stay. He's tuned up as if he's come back better this preparation and is a major player. TOO DARN DISCREET was brave last start, only to be beaten by a short margin at this track. Before that, she displayed her improvement at Flemington, tearing down a decent field. She profiles well for a Heatherlie Stakes. BRAYDEN STAR finished midfield last start in a resuming run, but is capable of much better than that, and he can show that in this. EL ROCKO (12) won last start at this track, bolting away with a front-running tactics and holding on in a narrow finish. He can win again, especially with the rain.
