Race Overview

BLUE STRATUM (4) didn't make the field at Moonee Valley where he was set to jump favourite. By a very fast sire in Blue Point, he's shown plenty of early speed and jumped out well. Should be right there and prove hard to get by. ADMITTED (1) has had a run, winning very nicely at Bendigo by 1.5 lengths. In good hands and gets McDonald on. Big danger. CATOGGIO (5) is a colt by leading sire Written Tycoon for the Waterhouse & Bott yard. Their 2yo's are very hard to beat as a rule and he's trialled well. Very wary. DUBLIN DOWN (2) was beaten by Blue Stratum when they met but did start favourite and can continue to improve. ALAA PLENTY (3) next best.
