Verdict

RIP WHEELER (6) looks to have returned in good order having made a winning return at his latest appearance at Mt Harding. Draws a few spots wider but should only be improved with that run under the belt and could go through his grades this time in. JUSTIFICATION (3) was solid enough when fifth from the back row last start at Mt Harding. The last time she raced here she scored a win over this distance. Could strike again. ERRATIC (9) hasn't raced for 13 months and cops a wide draw but she has been readied with a series of trials and her lone career win came when fresh. SPIRIT OF ATLANTA (4) draws better than last start and will be fitter for recent racing so may be ready to show more.
