Track: FAST      

DOUBLE IT HARRY (9) returns to the city in peak form having relished a class drop to win his last two outings, leading throughout for strong wins at Penrith and Tamworth. Draws wide but is going well enough to overcome that. JAZZY MELEA (7) led from this barrier and fought well to score at this circuit two back, taking her record at this distance to two from two. Must rate highly again. WHYIMAN (10) draws wide but is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 1.8 metres at this circuit and distance, his third success from his last five outings. SHARK DANCER (1) worked when midfield last week but missed narrowly at his previous two and draws to advantage.
