CARINI (7) was safely held last time when tenth over 1m2f in the G3 Easter Cup at this track albeit against tougher opposition. Blinkers have been removed. Should be in the finish. DASHING (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at Mornington, beaten 5 lengths into sixth after being prominent at the turn. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. Group 3 winner HERE TO SHOCK (3) finished third when resuming two runs back at Echuca then progressed nicely last time out to score by half a length over 7f in the G3 Victoria Handicap at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. Group 3 winner BELLE PLAISIR (8) comes here off a last-start seventh, beaten 3 lengths, over 1m at Bendigo. Can give this a shake.
