Verdict

Cracking race and highlight of the day with a host of these coming back in grade. THE WIRRULLA BOY (4) is a local galloper but has been racing in 50k events in town. Beaten just 1.5 lengths latest but returns home now and is a third-up winner. Great record at Lincoln and can build on it here. ZESTIMAN (7) is fitter for two runs for the new yard and has been going around in town as well. Ready to show best now and ideally placed back in this company. First try this trip but has the ratings to get off the mark for the new yard. I NEED A DRINK (8) is one of half a dozen for the Dunn/Bishop yard. Fitter for two runs back and has a strong record this course and distance. Ready to fire now. Stablemate CLEITUS (11) is having first try at Lincoln but has placed 5/6 at the trip and will be powering home late. ALLOUVRE (10) is another stablemate who is a former Victorian fitter for two runs for the new yard. Expected to measure up this company.
