KARBURAN (5) resumed and justified the strong betting push to score by 3 lengths in a 3200m hurdle at Warrnambool. Was having his first start for the Bobbin stable and with the extra fitness is a decent chance to repeat. EYE FOR AN EYE (3) was also popular with punters, winning a 3200m hurdle at Hamilton on his jumps debut. Had won a 66 on the flat prior, and the on-pacer will take pegging back. Wary of GOLDEN CRUSADER (4). Won a Ballarat hurdle by a big space before a spell and will be better for the first-up outing over 2000m at Flemington. Had come off a Hamilton 3200m trial win and Pateman is reunited. The betting will be key. The former Kiwi FIERCE FLIGHT (6) will likely show more fight second-up and may be the next best SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Karburan.
