AAP

Resuming (28-weeks). Capable of figuring fresh. Can go forward. Means business first-up.

ILB

Back from a break of 28 weeks. Set a strong tempo before weakening to place 3rd last run at Echuca. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Not at all out of this race.

Signs of improvement on last two runs; finished third of ten at Echuca over 6½f (maiden) in April; he should go close.

RSIS

Fresh from a 28 week break. Big effort to place 3rd beaten by 4 3/4L last start at Echuca. Has shown early pace in races to date. Can't leave out of your calculations.

AAP

Kicks off second campaign (30-weeks). Strikes a race he can win.

ILB

First up from a break of 30 weeks. Gave a strong sight when 3rd last time at Avoca. Likely to get back in the field. Facing a difficult task today.

This just his fourth race; career moving upwards; creditable effort when 40-1 third over 6½f at Avoca (maiden) in March.

RSIS

Fresh after a break of 30 weeks. Honest run on the pace before fading to finish 3rd last run at Avoca. Prefers to settle towards the tail.

Comments

AAP

On a quick back-up. Thereabouts of late but long time in the maiden ranks. Narrowly beaten in the small field at Balranald over this journey. Stiffer opposition here.

ILB

Racing on a quick back up. Missed by a narrow margin last run at Balranald. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.

Good effort when close up at Balranald a week ago; has displayed improved form on last two starts but still winless and defeats stacking up (14 on the bounce).

RSIS

On a short turnaround. Competed in a tight contest last time at Balranald. Will show up at the business end.

Unraced 4yo by Tosen Stardom and out of the Bushranger mare La Scippatori. Betting may provide a clearer picture.

ILB

Initial race appearance 4yo by Tosen Stardom for trainer Taige Weir. Betting as a guide.

First rules outing for this four-year-old son of Tosen Stardom; clear chance as some good aspects to his profile.

RSIS

4yo debutant sired by Tosen Stardom for Taige Weir. Watch the market.

Great run at Jamestown 3 Oct. Failed to threaten (outside alley) at Strathalbyn when drifting in the betting. New to Wycheproof. Others carry more punch.

ILB

Was $16.00 and lost ground in the run home when 7th last time at Strathalbyn. Chelsea Thompson takes a large claim.

RSIS

Started 15/1 and folded up in the straight when 7th last start at Strathalbyn. Large claim helps.

Makes debut for the Peter Gelagotis stable. No recorded trials. Nice gate. Looks suitably placed.

Vespa 4yo on debut for trainer Peter Gelagotis and gets a favourable gate. Watch betting.

New Zealander bred; first rules outing for this four-year-old daughter of Vespa; looks a contender.

RSIS

4yo by Vespa having first race start for Peter Gelagotis and drawn nicely. Respect the betting.

AAP

Ridden in back half, strong late to fill the minors 3yo+ Mdn Plate at Manangatang. More suitable draw. Worth a look.

ILB

Finished strongly when 3rd last start at Manangatang and has minimal work to do from the draw. Can run into the placings.

Third of ten when sent off 16-1 over 7½f at Manangatang (maiden) three weeks ago; has shown some recent improvement but winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 19.

RSIS

Ran on strongly when 3rd beaten by 1L last run at Manangatang and has a nice advantage with a good stall.

AAP

Ridden cold and never in the picture at Ballarat over this trip. Super fit from racing, can make her presence felt.

ILB

On a quick turnaround. Ran 6th last time at Ballarat. Should improve here. Should jump out and bowl along. Must respect.

Could not manage better than sixth at Ballarat eight days ago; not yet off the mark in six attempts although has finished third; this is competitive and one to tread carefully with.

RSIS

Racing on a quick back up. Finished 6th last time at Ballarat. Happy to overlook that run. Should come to hand quickly. Definite contender.

Resuming (32-weeks). Modest performer. Not pushed out Colac trial 22 Oct. Looks more a place prospect.

ILB

First up from a spell of 32 weeks. Was $91.00 and couldn't stay in touch when 6th last time at Cranbourne and will be facing a significant drop in distance. Needs significant improvement.

Held in sixth over 1m4½f at Cranbourne (maiden) in March; he can be competitive at this level.

RSIS

Resuming after a break of 32 weeks. Odds of 90/1 and didn't attack the line when 6th last run at Cranbourne and will be down in distance.

Resuming (35-weeks). First time around Wycheproof. May need this.

ILB

Back from a 35 week break. Came in 5th last run at Kyneton. Large claim helps.

This is his level; finished fifth, beaten a fair way over 7½f at Kyneton (maiden) in February; also engaged in race 1 at Berrigan.

RSIS

First run back from a break of 35 weeks. Came in 5th last start at Kyneton. The large claim from Chelsea Thompson should help.

Odds correct as at Sat 31 Oct, 10:41 am AEDT. Odds can change.
