Verdict

PRAVAHA (11) has not raced since her debut back on October 31 when she finished sixth over 7 ¼f at Kilmore. Has upside for top yard and is expected to go close fresh. MENZIES CREEK (6) made progress last start to finish second over 6 ¼f at Geelong after being prominent at the corner. Drawn well and should get his chance. DISCOVER LUPINO (2) was 5 lengths from the winner in sixth over 6 ½f at Seymour last time following a minor placing on debut the run before. Should park just off the speed and take some beating. INNER THOUGHTS (9) was beaten 1.3 lengths into fourth over 5f at Wangaratta at her latest appearance. She has each way claims.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Bolt

A sudden veering to the inside or outside rail, often caused by the horse spooking or shying from something.

State-Bred

A horse bred in a particular state and thus eligible to race in restricted state-bred races. These can be anything from maiden races to stakes events.

Also Eligible

A horse that is entered but does not draw into the body of the field due to too many entries, and thus is not permitted to start unless there are enough scratches to shrink the field size.
