Verdict

DECANTED (8) was good last time at Cranbourne when sticking on for a narrow third. He'll be up on speed and hard to run down. STRIKE GOLD (1) showed good early speed from the inside draw last time out, leading for home before finding a couple better over 7f at Ballarat Synthetic. Well-placed and worth including. OF THE VIEW (13) returns from a spell. Progressing well including a win in a Burrumbeet jump-out. Opened last campaign with a second at Mildura over 6f. Expecting a bold run fresh. COBBLESTONE WAY (5) tends to mix his form but improved last start to finish third over 6f at Moe. In the mix.
