Shortest win price
Geneva (6)
4.00
We head to Sandown for the Nationwide (Bm74) over 1800m on a heavy 8 surface with showers about, where the win market is headed by Geneva, closely followed by Killenaule, Oceana Dream, and The Muffin Man. This race shapes as an intriguing middle-distance battle where finding value will rely on digging into the form behind those shorter prices rather than simply following the early market order.
Geneva sits at the head of betting for trainers M Price & M Kent Jnr with Blake Shinn in the saddle from barrier two. This former New Zealander was just beaten in a similar class at Cranbourne last time out and should strip fitter second-up. Killenaule represents C Maher and comes into this off a decisive victory at Cranbourne over 2025m before dropping back slightly in distance here with Harry Coffey steering from barrier six. Oceana Dream for P G Moody & Katherine Coleman also commands respect from barrier seven with Luke Cartwright aboard, having proven a reliable type who ran an honest third at Sandown over 2400m previously and will appreciate the rise in trip here.
Further down the line, The Muffin Man for M J Enright shows a long losing streak but enters calculations for wider multiples after a grinding charge into the placings at Bendigo following a narrow defeat at Ballarat. Dragoon maps as the leader from barrier ten for G Eurell, though stable runners are currently underperforming market expectations, which suggests looking elsewhere for the bold play might be the wisest approach on this heavy track.

Reliable type who seldom disappoints. Okay at latest when settled back. Will be fitter second-up and rise in trip a plus. This looks very achievable.

Consistent performer; split Geneva and Two Wolves at Cranbourne over 1m (handicap) last month; this looks a fair heat so not easy to fancy.

At $3.10 passed some rivals in the late stages when 4th last start at Kyneton on a heavy track and has minimal work to do from the draw. Highly unlikely it will trouble the judge.
RP
Not beaten too far when fourth of nine over 1m1f at Kyneton (handicap) last week; meeting some horses in good form and others appeal more.
RSIS
Odds of 11/5 and made up ground when 4th last time at Kyneton and drawn nicely. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Suited by the weight drop.

Ridden back and never a factor at Flemington. Others with stronger claims.
ILB
Mediocre display when 12th last start at Flemington but ideal distance as proven previously. Will appreciate the drop in weight.
RSIS
Average at best when 12th last run at Flemington but suited at this trip historically. Gets a reduction in weight.

AAP
Long losing streak. Just missed at Ballarat 9 Oct. Settled at rear, produced a grinding charge into the placings at Bendigo. Place chances preferred.
ILB
Improved to place when 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last time at Bendigo but stepping up to a higher level. Performing impressively since coming back from a spell. Prefer in something easier.
RP
Has won here; producing consistent form; produced a good effort to finish third over 1m at Bendigo (handicap) 17 days ago.
RSIS
Rattled home nicely into 3rd last time at Bendigo but competing at a higher grade. In a purple patch of form since coming back from a break.
