Genuine tempo with Lim's Bighorn and Betwitchery up front. Interesting little race with YAHOO BAR (5) first up from Hong Kong, back with trainer Liam Howley who prepared him to win his maiden dominantly at Sandown Hillside in January 2024. Hong Kong didn't work out but he looks to love being back in Australia having won a recent Echuca trial by nearly 6 lengths which says he's ready to go. BETWITCHERY (9) was a smart winner here two back, good again in Adelaide last time when beaten narrowly in a driving finish. She sets up ideally here and can bounce back. LE FERRARI (1) continues to race well without winning, third last time at Cranbourne in a BM74. Back a notch here and will run another honest race. PARIAH PEARL (3) resumes. She can mix her form but did win dominantly first up last time in and is good enough. SIRIUS STATEMENT (11) is going okay and in the minor mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Yahoo Bar to win.
