Casterton Race 2 - Ogilvie Group Mdn Plate
RUNCHICKENRUN (11) trialled well at Geelong and then turned the form around there, beaten a whisker. She only has to hold that form to win. The danger is AUGUST BONUS (1), who will be better for his first-up placing. He has plenty up his sleeve and maps for the run-of-the-race. DOLCE D'AMOUR (5) was well beaten her last time, but his form generally would see him around he mark. TALLAPOOSA (12) will be fitter and also goes into the trifectas. FROSTY NIGHT (6) went well at Hamilton, but may need longer now.
