Verdict

FUEGO CRUZADO (4) has been racing well of late. Finished third at her latest appearance over 1 m at Bendigo, beaten 6 metres. Meets a comparable field and she can find winning ways. ALTATUDE (5) produced a better effort last start when she scored by 2 metres over 1 5/16m at Shepparton. Her recent effort is good enough to put her right in the finish. OPTIMAL (8) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1 m at Maryborough two-and-a-half weeks ago. VINCENT GRANGE (3) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1 5/16m at Kilmore.
