Verdict

Small field but good race. ORION THE HUNTER (2) wound up strongly to score here over 6 ½f at the latest. Racing very well and will be stalking the pace and tough to beat again. HEBEL (4) was fourth in the same race last time but the start prior beat Fields Of Courage which looks good form. Gets a chance to atone. THE GIRL'S BOY (1) was a winner three back then runner-up last two. Drawn for a nice trail and should be in the finish again. MAGARTEN (3) is a former South Australian who is making debut this area and is a good fresh-up performer. CRAZY BRAVE (5) rates well on the head defeat two back and can bounce back.
