Verdict

SHAMATEUR (3) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.5 lengths adrift in second over 4 ?f at Swan Hill. Rock-hard fit now and is ready to fire. LES GARCONS (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 4 ?f at Swan Hill, though only beaten 2.5 lengths. Is sure to have come on from that and finds a suitable race to play a more significant role. Looks a genuine winning hope. MEET ME HALFWAY (6) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 4 ?f at Swan Hill after being in the firing line on the turn. Small field. Can find winning form. THE LAST JUDGEMENT (12) certainly doesn't lack any fitness. Could sneak a spot in the three if he brings his A-game.
