Verdict

KEAYANG MINNESOTA (5) made it two wins in a row at her latest appearance over 1 5/16m at Terang, scoring by 2.25 metres after taking charge a long way from home. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. HAPPY ESCAPE (3) form has been impressive since returning from a spell. Finished second at his latest appearance over 1 5/16m at Terang, beaten 2.25 metres, on the back of a first-up win at Mt Gambier. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. WHY NOW (7) is the next elect off a last-start win by a nose at Ballarat over 1 ¹/16m. WHISKEY DAWN (6) is in the mix following a fourth at her most recent appearance over 1 ¹¹/16m at Swan Hill.
