Flemington Race 2 - Banjo Paterson Series Final

BERKSHIRE BREEZE (3) should be winning this, and winning it well. He's a very progressive former UK import who toyed with them at Cranbourne two back and was even more impressive here last start, winning in very fast time by 5 lengths. Gets in light here and looks a genuine Cups chance in the Spring. TARAMANSOUR (4) was good here last time when wide, beaten under a length. He meets the winner 2kg better at the weights and can pounce if the favourite falters. BORN A KING (1) beat TARAMANSOUR last time and must have some claims, but the 60kg makes it tough. ABERFELDIE BOY (2) has more improvement to come but does need to find a few lengths. SPERANZOSO (6) was dominant last time although this is much harder.
