Verdict

MALE MODEL (6) found a staying trip too tough in town and then was quickly back to business, missing a whisker this grade/trip at Sale. Maps well and is well-placed to take this out. MISTER BUSINESSMAN (3) had been racing well in the country before a tough effort at Geelong, narrowly beaten in much stronger than this. Keep Yendall, and will be hitting the line hard. THUNDER POINT (7) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, but the on-pacer got closer this trip at Ararat and Coffey takes over from Yendall. He's well in the mix on that effort. CHAIRMAN (9) hasn't been far away recently, including last time out when second over 1 ?m at Horsham. Going well without winning and is among the better contenders. FROZEN TIDE (10) brings a 56 win from Echuca and will be fitter. He will be around the mark.
