Wangaratta Race 3 - The Perth & Houston Memorial Mdn Plate
THE CHARLATAN (7) finished second, beaten 1.3 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1620m at Donald after he was in the firing line on the turn. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat. THE QUIET IMMORTAL (8) progressed nicely last start when he worked home well to finish a close second over 1400m at Cranbourne after just missing the placings at the previous appearance. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. VELVET CITY (9) finished 4.5 lengths away in fourth at his last appearance over 1425m at Geelong on June 19. Well placed on this occasion and is a likely improver. PRINCE OF SPIRIT (4) has appeal.

Last start 9th of 12 at Wodonga Mdn-Sw on June 27 over 2050m, on a wet track; 20 len behind Sir Basil with 58kg at $91. Before that ran second last of 8 at Pakenham Synthetic Mdn-Sw on June 15 over 2200m, 25 len behind Luxor Gold carrying 57.5kg at $151. Has had plenty of chances and tempted to look elsewhere.

Second-up. First-up after five months made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Donald Mdn-Sw on June 9 over 1620m, slow going 1.3 len behind Impending Swan with 59.5kg at $7. Previously second-up ran on strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 9 at Kyneton Mdn-Sw on December 11 over 1856m, 5.5 len behind Dad And Dave with 59.5kg at $10. Fitter and worth following up.
