Verdict

Good little race with some smart maiden winners. Siding with the resuming FAST FREDDIE (7) who won a handy maiden on debut at Geelong in June. Only a narrow margin there but there were gaps back through the field and he can go right on with it here. RHYME DUST (10) turned head with a dominant debut win at Murtoa, backed into $1.70 and bolting in by nearly six lengths. Much harder here but looks talented and will take beating. WETUMPKA (2) resumes having been in some handy races last time in and has claims from I SAID SO (8) who has been solid in two runs back. ANIA (5) is often in the money but finds it hard to win. Last raced nine days ago when she finished second over 6f at Mornington. Include in all combinations.
