Dunkeld Race 2 - Carlton Draught Mdn Plate
LIGHT FILLED (6) brings the most appealing profile after ending her previous campaign with a Donald third on heavy ground, beaten just under two lengths as a well-supported favourite, and a Ballarat fourth when close in an open market. That form should stack up well here. PARAK (3) resumes off a Colac trial win and his Swan Hill fourth reads well enough after racing wide throughout and finishing within just under three lengths at big odds. Can improve. CRACKED IT (4) has the fitness pointer of two trial wins since last racing and has placed at both tries around 1000m. Has the ability to figure prominently. HE'S FIERCE (1) was plain first-up at Traralgon but should improve off that and has claims with INNER THOUGHTS (5) who did beat him home there.

Was plain when resuming at Traralgon, finishing fifth in a Mdn on soft ground and beaten just under seven lengths after tracking the speed but failing to quicken. His earlier Albury third on heavy ground had more substance, with the market also giving him respect there, and he has placed two times from three starts at this distance. Sets up well and can figure.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing second last at Swan Hill, beaten over 11 lengths after tracking the lead and offering little. His Hamilton fourth two back was fair rather than threatening, and a 16-start maiden record with only two placings is a genuine concern. See this one.

Returns from a lengthy spell with a Colac trial win to bring him forward. His Swan Hill fourth before the break had merit after he raced wide throughout and was still beaten just under three lengths at big odds. Has the right profile to threaten.

Returns from a lengthy spell after disappointing as a well-supported favourite at Avoca, where she held a narrow lead but tired late and was beaten just over four lengths. Her previous Swan Hill third was stronger, particularly after racing wide, and she has placed at both starts around 1000m. Last run was below expectations, but the fresh setup suits.

Continued her progression when second at Traralgon last start, albeit beaten just over five lengths by Satoshi after looming without seriously worrying the winner. She had been fair at Bairnsdale the run prior and now has race fitness, a 3kg claim and a recent line through He's Fierce. Coming along okay and will be at her top.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a Donald third on heavy ground, beaten just under two lengths as a well-supported favourite. Her Ballarat fourth before that also reads well after leading and being over-run late in an open market, and she has placed twice from four runs around 1000m. Brings the strongest recent profile and looks the one to beat from the inside gate.

Debuts after two trials, the latest a close third at Moe, which gives her some race-day readiness. The 1.5kg claim is a small positive and the family has produced several winners, including Pendleton and True Mettle, but the wide barrier and limited public evidence keep the assessment measured. Market best guide.

Returns from a lengthy spell after two plain Ballarat Synthetic runs, most recently finishing second last and beaten just over eight lengths at big odds. She had also failed to finish off when ninth there the start prior despite being near the top of an open market. Has placed at 1000m, but recent race form leaves her place-only.

Returns from a lengthy spell, last seen finishing fourth at Ballarat Synthetic when beaten just under six lengths after losing position by the turn. Her Warracknabeal sixth before that came after a slow start and a wide run from the 600m, so there was some context, and she has since won two trials. Still has a long absence to overcome on race day.

Returns from a lengthy spell as an eight-year-old still chasing a first win after 14 starts. His last two race runs were fair without threatening, finishing ninth at Hamilton and seventh at Mt Gambier, with the market showing little confidence at Hamilton. Trial placing helps only slightly; others read better.
