IMPERIOUS (2) looks close to a win after placing in two of his last three starts. Turned in a good effort from a wider barrier last time out when third at Leeton, beaten 2.3 metres. Should enjoy an economical run from this draw. A big run is on the cards. ACHERON (3) has been racing well of late. Placed from the back line here two back then finished fourth at his latest appearance at Leeton. Aided by a low draw so he is capable of another big performance. YUM CHA (6) has been taking on higher-graded races so can measure up in this line-up. MAJOR HUSS (7) had a tough draw last time at Canberra but had recorded a win and a placing from his previous two starts here so is worth another chance.
