Greyville Race 3 - Tote For The Win Mdn Plate
DEONARIE (6) First up and ran well when 3rd first up last preparation at Scottsville. Producing consistent results since coming back from a spell and solid career start. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. ETZEBETH (11) Ran 3rd last time around here. Must respect in this event. BOURBON'S BEAST (3) Looked flat when 5th last run at the track and down in trip. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. NOCTAMBULIST (4) Only fair when 6th last run at Scottsville. Won't be far away during the run. Sound chances.

Returns from a two-month break after finishing fourth at this track in a Maiden, beaten just over eight lengths by Roy's Glorious when sent out at long odds. The start prior was weaker again, last at Scottsville and beaten over 13 lengths by Sparrow Man. Blinkers go on and the claim helps, but three unplaced runs around 1600m leave him with plenty to find.

Was last in a five-horse field over 2000m at this venue last start, but the margin was only just over four lengths and there was some market support at the price. His broader profile reads well for this, with two placings from three runs at this track and two placings from seven at the trip. The drop back in distance is the query, yet he has enough consistent maiden form to be a major player.

Finished sixth at Scottsville last start, beaten just over six lengths by Wo Zai at long odds, which was a steadier effort after finishing last and beaten over 18 lengths at Greyville. His two placings from six starts keep him in the place discussion, though the one try at this distance was unplaced. He profiles as a minor hope if he can rediscover his earlier form.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing last at Greyville, beaten over 15 lengths by Danny Atlas when unwanted in the market. His debut sixth behind Bello Gallico was more encouraging without being a standout, and he meets Bourbon's Beast again after clearly losing that latest clash. Third-up improvement is possible, but he has to rebound sharply to threaten.

Returns off a two-month let-up following a close fourth at Scottsville, beaten just over a length by Old Harry Rocks after firming into favourite. That followed a solid second behind Prized Possession, and his record of four placings from five starts marks him as one of the more reliable maidens here. With that depth of recent form, he is a serious winning chance.

Showed some market intent when fifth at this track last start, but was still beaten six and a half lengths by Royale Jacket. The run prior was a last placing at Scottsville, beaten just over nine lengths, and he has no placings from five starts overall. He has also been beaten by Etzebeth recently, so the class drop alone is not enough to make him appealing.

Has been well held in two starts, most recently second last at Scottsville and beaten over 17 lengths by Wo Zai after being unwanted in the market. His debut ninth behind Bello Gallico was also a long-margin defeat. Blinkers go on and he is third-up, but the exposed form says he must make a sizeable leap to get competitive.

Resumed with a solid third at this track over 1400m, beaten just over four lengths by Royale Jacket, and that gives him a useful second-up platform. The 1600m is the one question after one unplaced try around the trip, but he has placed four times from eight starts and has also placed on this surface. With blinkers applied and a claim in play, he sets the standard.

Improved to fourth at this venue last start over 1800m, beaten six and a half lengths by Sutter's Mill after firming from bigger odds. Before that she was sixth in FM MPLTE grade at this track and unwanted in the market, so the form still has gaps. The back in trip is a query given four unplaced 1600m attempts, but the claim keeps her in the place mix.
