SELECTIONS: ALDEBARAN DENBAY (7), SETTLE THE BILL (9), STRAIGHT TO THETOP (8), GIGGLE WATER (3)
OVERVIEW: ALDEBARAN DENBAY (7) has been terrific for trainer Brooke McPherson, racing tractably and consistently and delivering strong performances at this level and track. The wide draw is no luxury, but even if the lead isn't there, he sat parked last week and ran well. Tasmyn Potter's claim helps him get in front of a few key rivals, and she had a good feel for him last start.
SETTLE THE BILL (9) is an interesting runner. She was a beauty here last season, winning plenty of races, but then seemed to lose her way a little when she went up in grade and changed stables. Now she's back with Laura Wilson, and if the trial margin is any indication, she could be primed for a return to form. STRAIGHT TO THETOP (8) was in a good position before trotting poorly over the last 400m, but she's better than that and can bounce back from the soft draw. STARLIGHT RED (1), GIGGLE WATER (3) and ATTRACTED (4) all have place claims from their favourable draws.
BACK: ALDEBARAN DENBAY (7) – 2 units (win)
