BEDRAGGLED (4) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 5f at Yarra Valley in a tougher race. Sure to take a lot from that hitout so a big run is anticipated. DECCAN ODYSSEY (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 2.5 lengths when fifth over 6¼f at Geelong two-and-a-half weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Nicely placed to get the prize. I'M BATMAN (6) is a four-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth at his latest appearance over 5½f at Benalla. Solid top-three chance on his best figures. SHAME ON SUE (17) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished fifth over 6f at Ballarat Synthetic. Solid top-three hope.
