Verdict
Prince Tam was last of four over course and distance last week and reserves his best for Newcastle but MORNING TIME won off today's mark over hurdles at Perth in July and looks fairly treated back over fences. He's been placed a couple of times over the larger obstacles and can open his account today ahead of Jim Tango, who may do better now that the ground has eased a little. Panthers Run loves it here but is well into the veteran stage while Vardas Supreme will probably need this and Local Present also returns from a break. Moonlone Lane never figured on his chasing bow at Downpatrick but can only improve.
