Verdict

BETTORPATCHMEUP (3) finished third at Ararat on February 27 before making up plenty of ground but finding a couple better at his latest appearance over 1 5/16m at Ararat. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Won't find this any harder and he can find winning ways. HOME AND DRY (8) turned in a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1 5/16m at Bendigo on March 25. Can travel in a nice spot from this draw and wait on the sprint lane if necessary. Primary contender in this comparable race. WOW YOU CAN DANCE (5) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1 m at Terang a week ago. TEX GOES BANG (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1 m at Bendigo on March 25.
