---|---|---|---|---|
Dreamzel and Honor Galore to take up the running at a strong tempo. DREAMZEL (4) has enjoyed a five-week freshen up since going under narrowly in a busy finish over this distance at Bendigo. Meets a similar field this evening and with a bit of luck from a tricky draw she can get the prize. WOLFLANDS (3) is enduring a long win drought but finds the right race this time. Even effort to finish fifth last start over this distance at Sandown. The winner of two from three at this course. Can bounce back. CARDONE (7) started favourite and got the job done comfortably when resuming in a BM64 at Sandown a month ago. Expect him to hold that form. HONOR GALORE (6) made it three wins from five starts over this trip when successful first-up here three weeks back. Up in grade but should be competitive again. Last start Echuca winner BIG ME (1) has an outstanding record at this trip so he can run a big race despite the 62.5kgs steadier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dreamzel each-way in a tough one to close the program.
