Verdict

SAINT BERNARD (2) has matured into this role and was far too good here 3 weeks ago over 4000m when scoring by over 6 lengths. Now that he is racing more within himself, he should continue to improve, and we have him as the one to beat again. PRINCE TURBO (3) is as tough as they come when fit, and his steeplechase form has been in very good fields through the winter. He will be suited to 4800m, so expect him to be grinding home again. NAME THE GAME (5) has raced his way into some good form, and he gives every impression that the step up to 4800m for the first time will suit him perfectly. Each way. CAPTAINS RUN (1) had made a late start to the jumping season, and is still playing catch-up. He is good enough when fit to give a field like this a big shake. JAKAMA KRYSTAL (4) hit a brick wall when the pressure when on here last time out, and may have copped a clod of dirt in the mouth or something similar for her to drop out so sharply and be pulled up. She is worth another chance here.
