Race Preview

HEDGED (4) resumes here having gone to the paddock on a high, absolutely bolting in at Sandown-Hillside having run 4th to Veight, beaten 1.7 lengths at Caulfield prior. He's won a jump out leading in and can measure right up. AKICITA (8) resumes and creates plenty of interest. A dominant winner on debut, he started favourite and was beaten a head by Australian Guineas winner Southport Tycoon prior to a spell. Will get over further in time but has plenty of talent. GUMDROPS (3) is a progressive filly who won both starts last time in, the latest at listed level. Very wary. LOST (6) won well at the midweeks last start and has race fitness over a few key rivals. HANCHI (2) can improve.
