PRINCE PINOT (3) did little and finished 33 lengths from the winner in 12th over 2200m at Bendigo last start, a less impressive effort than his seventh at Flemington the run before. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. CHARITIES (9) knuckled down strongly to get within 1.3 lengths of the winner in second last start over 1400m at Bendigo. Leading player again. GRINZINGER FASHION (7) registered a strong win at Wangaratta two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when fourth over 2000m at Albury, beaten 3 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. WINGS OF CARMEN (4) turned in another moderate effort last start when 4.5 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1600m at Albury. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
