Verdict

BAZZAR (3) jumped out well and then resumed with a 1.5L defeat at Warrnambool over this distance. It was a tough effort after an awkward start and he will present fitter. Meech goes aboard today and can boot him home. I'LBERIDIN'SHOTGUN (2) came from well back to just miss at Ararat on debut. He's jumped out since and John Allen stays with him. The scratchings bring him right into it. RUSSIAN CHOICE (14) debuts and has looked talented at the jumpouts. Maps well enough and on what we've seen she can feature. EYE TRACKER (9) debuts for the Jackson yard and has won both his recent jumpouts. Has an awkward barrier, but has to be kept safe.
