PARTY WHIP (2) resumed over a mile with a 2.5L Maiden win sat Cranbourne over a mile. He will be better for it and he looks capable of taking the next step. WARLIST (9) just missed at Benalla over a mile and then came back to a sprint at Terang as favourite and lacked sufficient finishing dash. This suits better and he gets in well with the 2kg claim. QUEEN BEIRA (8) missed a whisker two back at Stawell heavily bet and then found the grade a touch rich at Mornington. Presents on a 7-day return and is a decent chance to bounce. RIPPLEBROOK (5) is a veteran who has been racing well without winning. The rails gate will advantage and he will be around the mark.
