A tricky one-win race to close the card with several chances. ROMAN CHARLIE (4) appeared to have things in his favour last start and after taking control was unable to put them away. Holding on for the bronze, which was at 2138 and with the return to the mile, he might just bounce back.

BENNYDASOOK (9) is still chasing his first victory of 2026 but has placed in four of seven for the term. A second line gate stung in the Breeders Final behind FIRE AND PASSION which followed a narrow 2nd in the heat behind PURE GRUNT. Despite the gate, in this grade he can challenge.

QUICK SHAVE (6) made the most of a big class drop and heading to Redcliffe to break through for a career opener last start. Building off that, he can be thereabouts again here.

LOWER WEST SIDE (2) ships in for visiting trainer Luke Bryant and arrives following two unplaced efforts at Wagga. Breaking maiden ranks at Ballarat three back, he can chime in.

SELECTIONS: ROMAN CHARLIE (4), BENNYDASOOK (9), QUICK SHAVE (6), LOWER WEST SIDE (2)
