Verdict

EARLY CROW (2) did not have the best of runs fresh up and only battled to the line. He draws the pole position this time and has won 3 times second up in the past. The drop back from 1200m to 1100m will suit him, and he will be a quick improver. On top. FIELD OF FLUTES (4) showed plenty of ability in Victoria and has not missed a beat since shifting States. He is chasing a hat-trick of local wins, and there is no reason why he can't complete the task. O'TYCOON (5) fought on bravely when finishing fourth as favourite here 2 weeks ago in a similar field. He has a superior gate this time and can make amends. Follow your money. BEAU FACTOR (7) remained unbeaten in 5 starts on this track when winning fresh up by a short head here just over 3 weeks ago. He cops a tougher gate here and has yet to win over this trip. That could change here. Stick with him.

Second-up. First-up after five months won by a head at this track 0 - 76 February 22 over 1000m defeating Brat with 57kg at $4. Previously second-up made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Wellington Bm66 on May 7 over 1100m, slow going 5 len behind Sisters Pick carrying 55.5kg at $10. No reason he cannot get the job done again. Has won second up in the past and is capable of building on that record.
