Verdict

LE PLUS RAPIDE (6) has just found one better at his past couple but a win looks close. He went down a head here over 1 ?m last start and a repeat will see him very hard to beat in a fairly thin affair. EYE TRACKER (10) is a lightly raced mare for the Shane Jackson yard who steps up in trip off a sound run at Swan Hill over 1m. She should be an improver up to a staying trip. FIGHT LIKE A RAVEN (2) was even on debut despite being beaten a long way, he can improve sharply off that. PRECIOUSMORE (11) has been freshened with a month between runs after a poor performance at Donald. Wary of sharp improvement.
