Verdict

ROSSO (1) stayer getting up to the right distance here. Scored over this trip here last year at R82 level before taking on the big cups. Fought on well over 2000m here last time. Ready to be hard to beat here. PROBOY (8) Made up many lengths when fresh over 1600m in September and ran on again over 2100m at Ellerslie. Ran on best from midfield to score over 2400m at Trentham last time. Respect. JUST CHARLIE (9) won this race last year when led throughout. Fought back well for 2nd to Solidity at Ellerslie over 2100m last time. Better suited here. COURT OF APPEAL (4) better efforts in last couple when running on well from midfield and beyond to be close-up. Had no luck wide without cover when a game 5L 6th in this race last year. THE PRECURSOR (10) stayed handy in R75 2000m win 2nd-up then nice late run from last for 4th behind Top Shelf over 1600m at Ellerslie last time. Lightly raced and has upside.
