Verdict
Winning bumper Anytime Now was a bit disappointing in his two runs at Perth and is carrying a penalty here. He has to concede weight to COLWINSTON and that could prove beyond him as Suzy Barclay's charge, another to disappoint at Perth, had previously run very well in a big field of maidens here in May. Triangle Rock hasn't shown much and will probably be better over further in time while dual point-to-point winner James Boru also needs a stiffer test.
