Verdict

WORTH AVENUE (9) has hit the top-five in her past 11 starts and is usually thereabouts. Strips fitter third-up and can feature in the outcome. CLIPPER SHIP (1) got the chocolates here at the latest effort and is drawn ideally in the inside marble. Top-three aspirations. IBERIAN RULER (7) resumes here but the form he showed before the spell was good enough to play a role in this. Can run a race while fresh. PIREONTI (8) gets in well at the weights with the claim and may earn a cheque.

Second-up. First-up after four months ran last in a small field at Bundaberg Hcp on December 7 over 1212m, 6 len behind Grand De Lago with 52kg at $19. Previously second-up eased back early on 7th of 10 at this track Cl3-Sw on November 11 2022 over 1400m, 7 len behind The Drover carrying 55.5kg at $151. Doesn't look a major threat in this.
