Verdict

SALARAE (4) resumed with a good run at Mornington, getting into third and beaten under a length. She'll naturally improve for that run and looks to get a lovely run just behind the pace from a good gate. GRACCONI (1) resumes. He showed ability in two runs last time in and can roll forward from an outside gate. TANABATA (11) resumed with a nice run at Geelong in fourth, beaten two lengths. She'll improve for that for the Waller yard and should go close. PRESTIGE FANTASTIC (2) made improvement at his second start when getting home well at Bendigo. Up in trip again suits and he draws nicely. STAR JE TAIME (9) was solid fresh in a strong maiden and should improve quickly.
