Verdict

BALLROOM BELLA (6) classy mare who justified the heavy support first up when a decisive winner over 1150m at Randwick Kensington in BM78 class. Braith Nock rides again with the 2kg claim and expected to go close in this stronger event. PISANELLO (1) talented gelding who drops back to Benchmark class after disappointing when seventh in the LR Bob Hoysted Hcp over 1000m at Flemington. Tempo suits and will be hard to hold out. BARBER (3) resumes and now in the Richard Litt stable. Finished off last campaign with a gallant fifth in the LR Always Welcome Stakes at Flemington over 1200m five-and-a-half months ago. Fitted with two trials and comes to hand quickly. UZZIAH (4) tough gelding with a smart first up record. Looks well placed around this track with Bourke's 2kg claim. Maps well and the two trials have been excellent.
