Verdict
ZILZIE LAD (7) was below his best last time when seventh after being prominent at the turn over 2447m at Moe, beaten 15 lengths. That was in BM62 grade though, so beautifully placed here and is sure to play a major role. BOOKMAN (1) has been knocking on the door all campaign and most of those runs have been in races with more depth than this so it's hard to imagine he's not fighting out the finish once again. Similarly, BOW RIBBON (4) has placed at his past three, so he only needs to hold the form of his recent runs. The trick for him could be the wide alley. TACTFULL (3) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when seventh, beaten 7 lengths, over 1600m at Kilmore but looks better-placed here SECOND NATURE (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 2100m at Echuca, beaten 3.5 lengths into seventh.

VerdictComes here off a 32-day let-up. At the latest run 7th of 9 at Moe Bm62 on September 23 over 2447m, on a slow track; 15 len behind Omamori with 57kg at $11. The race before that 4th of 8 at Hamilton Bm56 on September 15 over 2200m, on a slow track; 1.4 len behind Four Outlaws with 60kg at $4.80. Certainly worth another chance dropping back to this grade. - 5. Lumpys Highway

VerdictMost recently 3rd of 8 at Wodonga Bm52 on October 18 over 1590m, 5 len behind Bellman with 59.5kg at $8. The race before that failed to make an impression; ran last of 9 at Gunbower Hcp on October 4 over 1800m, 9 len behind Station One carrying 53kg at $61. Not many last-start placegetters here so only needs to maintain last-start form.- 2. Shock
