Donald Race 6 - Bet365 Donald Cup

Competitive. PRINCE ERIC (8) was close up at Caulfield and Sandown-Hillside in 78s and then disappointed going back to Caulfield with Blake Shinn aboard. (vet cleared). Bates goes on today, and the gelding carries 4kgs less at this level. Rates well and comes back to the mile off a 32-day freshen. Placed in this race last year and can get back on track. SURPRISE COMING (10) is a South Australian who rates well of close-up efforts at Murray Bridge and Morphettville. Has Meech and the inside gate, and also carries less. He's a winning chance. OCEAN BEYOND (4) drifted well back last start then wound up strongly beaten 3 lengths over 1800m at Flemington. Hasn't won for a long while, but he will have taken further fitness and can't be ruled out. CRAFTY BOSS (5) was beaten a lip last time in the Ararat Cup. This is a bit tougher, but he's on a quick backup and tumbles in weight on a 7-day return. DARK JOURNEY (6) can improve today.

At the latest run tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 3rd of 7 at Ballarat Bm62 on November 3 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 0.6 len behind Jackand with 59.5kg at $2.40. The run before that led but faded 2nd of 10 at Geelong Bm70 on October 23 over 1700m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Sigiriya Rock with 55kg at $21. Not far away last time but hard to have in this contest.
