Verdict

BIG ME (4) struggled in a much stronger race at Flemington before a spell but resumed with a dominant win at Bendigo over 1000m, scoring by 2.25 lengths as a hot favourite. He's proven in better classes than this and looks very hard to hold out again. MAJOR SHARE (5) clearly didn't handle the heavy track fresh at Warrnambool when beaten 13 lengths as a $1.60 favourite. He showed plenty of ability last time in with the market profile to match and should be a big improver here. GRACIE'S RAIN (9) ran well in a similar race fresh, beaten a length into second. She's still lightly raced and has claims. REIGNING KING (3) wasn't far away at Cranbourne and has each way claims while MOON AND BACK (7) is always a chance in these but does need the right run.
