Verdict

POOR OL' JOHNY RAY (4) is racing well and is closing in on a win, the latest effort a solid third at Pakenham Synthetic over 1 ?m after he worked home in great style. Ratings suggest he has an edge over his rivals here. SPICY APPLE (5) has been racing in great heart with three top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 1 5/16m at Echuca when he was in the firing line all the way. Looks well placed so expect another big run. FARASI (6) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1 ½m at Bendigo, beaten 5 lengths into sixth. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MORTAL PEAK (1) could only manage to finish seventh at his latest appearance over 1 ¼m at Cranbourne. This looks a nice race so expect him to finish closer. MUNGERANNIE (2) did little in two flat runs before a fair effort over the jumps last start, so should be at peak fitness now.
