Verdict

ZAMBARDO (12) narrowly gets the nod. He's absolutely flying, winning four in a row and doing it easily at Caulfield last time out as a well-backed favourite to score by 1.3 lengths. This is harder again but certainly not a huge leap for a horse with his upside and he draws for every chance. SHOCKLETZ (11) looks the main danger. She was a progressive staying 3yo over the Winter and resumed with plenty of dash at Sandown Hillside over a mile, sprinting quickly with 58kg to score well. She drops sharply in weight and more ground will only suit her better. AL DUCA (9) continues to race very well, run down by a progressive one at Caulfield last time out when carrying the big weight which he now drops right down in. Lane sticks with him from the good gate and he'll take some beating. FORTUNE (5) has won two of his past three and has to be respected. ZIRYAB (6) is through two fast races and could be an improver.
