Verdict

PURPLE MOON (2) is looking to improve on her last-start fourth behind Cee Cee In Paris at Group Two level over 1m at Menangle seven-and-a-half weeks ago. Racing in a much easier line-up and is the one to beat from an ideal draw. MISTER DEVEREAUX (8) scored at Kilmore three runs ago when leading all of the way. Returned to something like that form last time out when third over 1 ?m at Melton, beaten 12 metres. Shouldn't spend a penny from this draw and the sprint lane may come in handy. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. ZOOLU (6) is on the radar after her last-start fifth over 1 5/16m at Bendigo two months ago after racing four-back on the spell at the bell. AFRICAN GALA (1) should not have any excuses from his favourable draw.

8	Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fifth behind Timmy Whiz at Melton over 1 ¹/16m in a 3yo+ on July 31 at $5. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after showing early speed, behind The Preacher at Melton over 1m on August 12 at $31.

6	Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr5) over 1 5/16m after racing wide at Bendigo beaten 12 m by Sebastians Waiting (2:41.80) on June 24 at $8.50. The run before 8th (Sr1) over 1m at Ballarat, beaten 45 m by Calabasas (2:45.30) in M on May 28 at $5.50. Can do a lot better in this suitable contest. 3rd Pick 6 Zoolu Jockey: Michael Bellman Trainer: D K Bellman J: Michael Bellman T: D K Bellman	75	-	-	-	17%	Scratched
