Mornington Race 3 - Catanach's Jewellers (Bm84)
Not a whole lot of winning done in this field in recent times. VERDAD (2) is the pinup for that crew but does hold the most recent victory, scoring nicely two back at Flemington to break a run of outs. Struggled last time on the sticky Moonee Valley track, he should set up nicely here in a winnable race. FIASCO TESS (8) is knocking on the door having just found one better her past two. She gets in with 53kg here and looks well placed. EUPHORIC (4) has been solid in two runs back, chasing Is It Me and VERDAD for a pair of fifth placings. Should be ready to fire now. CHIHULY (7) struggled fresh but can improve, as can RESET THE JAZZ (6) who was off a very long spell at Sandown Hillside.

First up last campaign ran last of 15 at Flemington in the LR Tontonan September 14 over 1400m, in the wet; 17 len behind Chrysaor carrying 54kg at $17. Might be better off following this outing.

Most recently 8th of 10 at Moonee Valley Bm84 on March 22 over 1500m, slow going 6 len behind Stay Focused with 61kg at $4.80. The run before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.3 len at Flemington Bm84 March 1 over 1600m defeating Fortune with 58.5kg at $5. Best form would win this.

Back from a spell. Only had one start last campaign 10th of 12 at Eagle Farm Bm85 on February 15 over 1600m, slow going 8 len behind Tenzing with 58.5kg at $101. First up last campaign second last of 11 at Caulfield Bm100 on June 1 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Dashing with 53kg at $151. Fitter for a jump-out on March 24 at Cranbourne when finished ninth. Might be better off following this run.

Racing well. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 12 at Caulfield F&M Bm78 on April 5 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Grey Ice with 56kg at $19. Before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Geelong Bm78 on March 15 over 1400m, head behind Georgie Get Mad carrying 54kg at $16. Tough to beat.
