Verdict

MR ASSERTIVE (3) resumes. He was racing in consistent form last time in work, placing in a slightly deeper BM58 at Geelong before a spell. He was poor first up last time in work but that was a much stronger race behind subsequent G1 winner Reserve Bank. He's won a couple of jumpouts leading in and can make his presence felt. DO IT NOW (10) is racing well, beaten a nose two back at Seymour before another sound effort at Moe. Draws for a soft run here and should be right there. SHYLEAH (12) had an issue when dropping out at Ballarat last time out but had been going well prior, starting $2 in this grade at Seymour two back when just missing. Can bounce back. NEVER A THOUGHT (1) is coming off a narrow maiden win at Moe at just his second start. Maps to land on speed again here and can measure up. WALTER SPUR (2) likes wet ground and can bounce back off a poor run last time.
