The Meadows Race 10 - Di Battista Real Estate

PAR EXCELLENCE (7) was below best last time when eighth at this track but prior to that was a Grade 5 winner in the quickest time on the card at Sandown. Can make amends this time. KOPACKI RIT (2) has a strong overall record having three wins and seven places from 11 starts including a last start third (26.24) over 460m at Geelong. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. RIVERS MEET (6) turned spotting a big start finishing sixth (29.32) last time in a Grade 4/5 at Sale. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Bold showing expected. WHISKY BELLA (4) will need to run right up to last start to feature again.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 500m at Bendigo. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
