Verdict

MERCHANT OF GREECE (6) was disappointing second up at Werribee when in the market but that track has brought a few undone in the past and he's one the market has always liked. Wouldn't surprise if he put it all together. UNRIDDLE (11) has been good at his past couple, beaten under a length over this track and distance last time out. He's a 17 start maiden but should be thereabouts again. FRENCH CLASS (4) resumes. He wasn't bad in his first campaign, getting better with racing and when getting over a bit more ground. Like him kicking off at 7f and he can be an improver this time around. PROPHET'S SON (8) is a gelding by Divine Prophet on debut for the Welsh yard who has jumped out quite well and can figure.

The times recorded during the race; with timing starting just past the gate or when the gates open, then parroted for the quarter, half, three-quarters etc. Used as an indication of ability and speed.

Claiming Race
