Verdict

CUTE GIRL (6) was solid fresh then stormed home to just miss last time over 7f at Bendigo, beaten only a head. Should relish the extra ground and looks tough to stop. DETERMINATO (1) is still a maiden after eight starts. Just missed at Cranbourne two starts back before finishing eighth over 1m at Bairnsdale last start when tried to lead throughout. That was a hot form race and is worth another chance. GASOLINE RAINBOW (7) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at Coleraine, beaten only half a length. Gave a sight first try this trip last time and looks a key runner. LE PLUS RAPIDE (2) could only manage to finish fourth, beaten 3 lengths, at his latest appearance over 1 5/16m at Ballarat Synthetic. On the quick back-up and will be tough to stop. WEST FORTY SEVENTH (5) was third in a three-way photo last time and likely to measure up again with a repeat performance.
