Verdict

GUNSEN ROSIE (4) settled handy and boxed on okay for a midfield finish last time out at Kilmore. That continued some consistent form having put together a string of top-four finishes prior. Looks well placed in this winnable assignment. CHRISTMAS BABE (6) led and gave ground in stronger company at her latest appearance at Bendigo but was good when placed here prior. Primary contender in this suitable race. FLING IT RAINBOW (9) can mix the form but managed a win in this grade at Kilmore in December and is a two-time winner at this circuit and distance. TENSION SEEKER (7) draws wide but has claims off a Ballarat win three back.
