SELECTIONS: ALL THINGS SPICY (9), BAYSTYLE (10), BREATHE EASY (3), BETTORSWEETVICTORY (2)
OVERVIEW: ALL THINGS SPICY (9) has returned from a break in good fashion, with two impressive third placings at Cranbourne and Melton where she has hit the line hard from off the speed. I loved her finale last time when rounding up a large portion of the field behind Janiebquick, and she gets a nice back row trailing draw here. Keen she runs well. BAYSTYLE (10) is the two-year-old taking on older horses, but looks a pretty smart customer from the Geoff Webster barn. He chased from out the back in a fast last half at Ballarat last time, and has a good second to top juvenile Comeandsee in the Rising Star at the same track to his name. BREATHE EASY (3) is among a few off the front row that like to go forward and some of his recent form is good, while the consistent BETTORSWEETVICTORY (2) and in-form BONA KHAN (4), who is shooting for four-straight, are others that can win in a wide-open event.
BACK: ALL THINGS SPICY (9) – 1 unit (each-way)
