Little Richie Turf to take charge ahead of Qubella at a strong tempo. NETWORK ERROR (7) as only won the one race from 17 starts, all the way back in April last year, but she strikes the most winnable race she's been in for a while. Hasn't run further back than fourth in three runs in Victoria, most of them in races with more depth than this. Gets the services of an in-form jockey will give her every chance. QUBELLA (12) has logged her most recent wins on the picnic circuit but it wasn't that long ago that she was nosed out in a race of similar quality to this at Kerang. PLEASE ME DO (11) disappointed last start but has trialled well since, which hints at a return to the previous form, which would be good enough to go close in this. HIDDEN WITNESS (9) has been racing consistently and doesn't need a whole lot to go her way from the good draw to be a key player. AIRCLASH (3) should be at peak fitness after four runs back and was fitted up for this in a recent 1000m Bendigo jumpout, in which he finished second. SUGGESTED PLAY: Network Error each-way.
