Solid pace from Crunchy Nut pushing forward, along with Estimator from the outside gate. DON'T TRUST JUDAS (5) just missed over this course and distance a fortnight ago and his figures suggest there's still more to come from him. Now third-up, he can improve further in his ratings and if he can do that, he'll be going one better this time out. IMPOSSIBLE DREAM (10) ran over the top to score over 1100m last start at this track. She rises to 1400m for just the second time, but the booking of Parnham suggests it won't be an issue. Drawn nicely and can repeat the dose. PRINCE I THINK (6) was slow to recover when disappointing as favourite at Bunbury 15 days ago in what is an effort worth forgetting. His form prior was great, winning at this track two starts back. Can return to form. COVERT ROSE (8) only had the one run last campaign before going for a spell again. Trials this time in have been fair, but if she's fit and ready to go, she'll be in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Don't Trust Judas gets the nod in the last.
