Verdict

MESSAGE BANK (6) chased star colt Hollywood Strip when fourth at his latest appearance. Won three of his previous four outings, leading to salute two back at this venue. Draws wide but loves this distance, winning six of eight attempts. Big chance. There was plenty to like about the latest performance of DIAMOND ECLIPSE (9) when third at Melton, beaten 2.2 metres. Draws for a trail and owns a decent record here. Danger. MIKI LOCH (2) raced parked when winning at this circuit and distance last month and could be close to another success after seconds in the last two outings. Up in grade but draws to make an impact. DAY TWO (7) draws wide but brings consistent form from Victoria and is a two-time winner at this circuit and distance.
