Verdict

Tough. DHARAM SHALAA (1) has been racing in stronger and last time came from a long way back beaten just 2.3L over 1 ¼m at Stawell. Expect the step up in trip to suit this time around and he's well placed in this contest. DIONISIO (2) improved last start placing distantly over 1 ?/16m at Cranbourne. This is a lot easier and he has a handy 4lbs claim. He can make the finish in this company. but found a couple better over 1 ?/16m at Cranbourne. MASH AND GRAVY (3) won a 56 this track and trip but hasn't featured at provincial level since. Is on a 9-day return and will find this more to his liking. PIPLUP (6) has ability and fourth up she should be ready to find more like her best. The last time she raced over this distance was in tougher metro company.
