GOING: G

Haeusler's Maiden Plate 2200m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.29)  

Should be a keen tempo with Sea Of Galilee, My Boy Jim and Doumo prominent. DHARAM SHALAA (5) was out-graded at Stake level last time, but immediately prior was nudged out at Bendigo and Ballarat over middle distances. That's good form. Waterhouse-Bott have switched SEA OF GALILEE (8) from their Sydney barn on a 14-day return. They are likely searching for firm tracks, and they get that today. He's ready to show a lot more. MURGASTY (7) raced at Sandown on debut over a mile, and it was a good effort. He didn't have the best at Ballarat following, stepping up to 2000m. Fitter again, and has to be considered. SHADES OF SHERIFF (4) wasn't beaten far at Kyneton and is next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Dharam Shalaa.
