Verdict

Some handy types here for a BM66 and CHEWING GUM (10) is testing the patience of punters but is poised to win after placing at her last three outings, most recently when second over 7f at Ballarat when she was in the firing line all the way. Just needs the right run from the gate and she is likely to get back. PRINCESS TORO (6) won first up at Bendigo then finished third last time out over 6 ½f at Swan Hill, beaten 2 lengths. Has never been out of the placings at the third run in so she is among the winning hopes. REGAL TYCOON (8) continues to race well with a win two back at Kyneton before finishing a nose away in second last time over 6f at Mornington. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. SOME PEOPLE CALLME (2) disappointed last time out when back in grade, but the first run for the new stable, which was in town, was more than good enough for a race like this.
