SIR EUGENE GORMAN HANDICAP
LOVELYCUT (2) looks well placed third up. Both runs back have been good but she really caught the eye with a strong finish here last start to just miss by a long neck. 1400m seems her best trip and a repeat effort goes a long way to winning. She finished ahead of MADIYYA (4) there who was first up and ran on well in her own right for a narrow fourth. Staying at 1400m is a little niggle but she should come on from that and has always shown good ability. XARPO (3) tried hard at Bendigo last start but was just edged out by a nose. She's been largely consistent this time in and will be hard to run down again. VIVACISSIMO (14) is racing well, off a short spell into last start when running on well to just miss a handy one at Bendigo. She should strip fitter and take holding out. MYSTIC WONDER (7) wasn't far away in G2 company last start and did win prior, have to respect.
