Verdict

MELBOURNE MAGIC (4) narrowly on top. The first up run at Warrnambool was solid enough on the heavy ground despite finishing fifth as favourite. He was off a 10 month break there having shown plenty of ability this time last year and can improve quickly. CACCHIONE (2) is a big danger coming off a very narrow defeat at Wangaratta first up. The stable tested him in a G3 at his second start last time in behind Napoleonic and any natural improvement sees him go close. BARBARINO (1) is a gelding by Vino Rosso on debut for the Papazaharoudakis yard who has won a trial leading in and should be respected with Mott booked. NINETYFIVEINAFIFTY (9) presents third up and should get a nice run, each way.
