Kilmore Race 2 - Robert 'Chappy' Chapman Memorial Mdn Plate
Hard work this, and it looks like the perfect launching pad for PERFECT RIPOSTE (5), a first-starter from the powerful Lindsay Park team. Son of Savabeel, so debuting at this trip won't be a problem, and he comes here off two nice Flemington jumpout efforts, including a win at the latest. He's drawn well, and so has TERRACOTTA WARRIOR (8), who should get every favour from the draw. Debut was adequate, but it is worth noting it came in a race of much more depth than this, so only getting beaten 3 lengths was a positive. STASH ROYALE (10) is another first-starter drawn favourably who has looked at the most recent trials ahead of the debut. MYSTIC RAPTURE (4) has had a heap of chances but has performed well in better races than this, so might sneak a placing. LADY BLANC (9) trialled encouragingly coming into the debut campaign and will be better for the first start.

Second run back. First-up after four months ran last of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Cranbourne on October 9 over 1400m, 20 len behind Kotahitanga carrying 59.5kg at $101. Previously second-up 7th of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Bairnsdale on March 22 over 1200m, on a slow track; 7 len behind I Said So carrying 59.5kg at $101. Looks a fair way off peak form so others are preferred.

First starter by Performer out of River Dreaming. Has a total of six trials prior to his debut today. Did not show a great deal at the trials and prefer to see in a race before backing.

Comes here off a 32-day let-up. Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 in a F&M Mdn-Sw at this track on September 28 over 1450m, 8 len behind Skydream carrying 58kg at $21. The start before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 13 in a Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on September 6 over 1300m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Sumaluv carrying 57.5kg at $20. Tough to beat if near her best.

Three-year-old gelding (Savabeel - Cutting Remark). Ben, Will & Jd Hayes has him primed for this with seven recent trials prior to his debut today. Won his most recent trial at Seymour over 800m on October 14. Looks a capable type and will be competitive.

Resuming today after only having had one start and then had four-and-a-half months break. At debut last start 9th of 11 in a Mdn-Sw at Ballarat Synthetic on June 26 over 1200m, 10 len behind Harry De Lad with 57kg at $71. Had five recent trials to get ready for this. Last trial fitter for a jump-out on October 13 at Ballarat when finished seventh. Might need more time.

Gelding back from a spell of five-and-a-half months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last preparation second last of 12 at Stawell Mdn-Sw May 18 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 19 len behind Call Me Rhonda carrying 59.5kg at $31. Previously first up; ran last of 8 at Geelong Mdn-Sw April 22 over 1325m, 5.5 len behind Strangethingdesire carrying 59.5kg at $41. Had too many chances, so can't give a push until we see more.
