Verdict

GLOBAL ECLIPSE (7) is 2nd emergency in the South Australian Derby and sweating on a run there. If he remains in Melbourne, he should take plenty of catching here. He led at a slow tempo at Cranbourne but let rip with a sharp turn of speed to go on and win by six lengths, reeling off a last 600m over a second faster than the next quickest horse in the race. THE MUFFIN MAN (5) steps up to 2000m for the first time having stuck on well behind Athanatos at Flemington last time out. That form has worked out well in Adelaide and if Ethan Brown can slide across with minimal fuss he should take catching. OXFORD BLUE (3) gets to 2000m now which should suit. He's going well, just fancy he wants a stronger staying test. Shinn on is a positive. HURRY CURRY (2) wasn't bad last time and should be suited to this trip. JENNI YOU THINK (8) has only raced twice and there's definite upside to come.
