Verdict

Tough finish. ALZARO (14) is knocking on the door having finished third in her past couple of starts, chasing well off a very slow speed at Ballarat Synthetic latest. Not sure she wants it too soft but we should be on a drying surface and she's good enough to win this. There was little between ZORRO'S FLIGHT (3) and EL TERCERO (4) when they finished 1-2 in that order last start at Sale. Both were second up, Zorro's Flight just proving too strong. Doubt there's much between the pair again. SHE'S ANN IDEA (13) was a dominant winner on debut at Ballarat Synthetic and was well backed there. Now to turf and drawn poorly but respecting. ATTAIN (8) is going okay and has each-way claims in an open race.
