Verdict

MISSMALACHITE (6) was beaten narrowly two runs ago then went close again last time over 1 m at Terang, finishing second and just 2 metres from the winner. Won't find this any harder and she can bounce back to winning ways. ESPERANZA (4) turned in a much better run last start when runner-up over 1 5/16m at Stawell, beaten 1.3 metres. Her recent form is good enough to put her right in the finish. SKADI (3) was responsible for a better effort last time out when third over 1m at Charlton. Should run a big race. DANCIN WITH ELVIS (1) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1 m at Terang.
