Verdict

LESTER (5) finished third at his most recent outing, beaten 5.5 metres, in a far better performance at Bendigo over 1 5/16m. His recent form is good enough to put him right in the finish. OUR MASTER PLAY (4) drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 20 metres into tenth at Ouyen over 1 ¼m. Meets a similar quality field and is good enough to take out a race like this. APOLOGY ACCEPTED (8) disappointed last time when ninth over 1 m at Ouyen. Is better than that run suggests and can turn things around. THE AFRICAN QUEEN (6) must be respected after scoring first-up last start by 3.5 metres at Ouyen over 1 ¼m.
