Verdict

SIR ATLAS (2) hits this third up off a very strong win at Wangaratta, sent out the $2.10 favourite and rattling home in good splits to score by a length. He's the best horse in the race on his day, he'll just need the gaps to open from an inside gate. ZESHADOW (7) sprinted well to get up narrowly at Ballarat last time out, defeating BRUNG KING (3) who had 140lbs in the process. They meet on similar weights here, both have claims with differing maps/draws. INHERENTLY (11) has placed in both runs back, getting into second at Warrnambool over 7f last time. Back up to a mile here will suit, can see him getting a good run midfield off a strong tempo. CAT NOIR (5) is racing consistently, just finding one better at Cranbourne last time. She'll be up on speed and hard to get past.
