Verdict
HYPNOSIS didn't shape too badly over course and distance from a high draw last time and she wouldn't need to improve too much on that performance to take a hand in the finish of this heat. Noel Wilson has his team in good form at present and this mare may be able to capitalise on a handicap mark that has been in decline over the past 12 months. Lake Chini is in good form but may ideally prefer a stiffer test at this trip whilst Methaaly has also done most of his winning over further but Grudge has each-way claims if the cards drop right. Aalsmeer is another who could challenge for minor honours whilst Canadian Danehill and Silver Prelude are also well worth considering in a typically tough opener.
