RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MUFASA BART (7) has had just the one race start since June 2025, but has trialled up nicely for his return here and looks in good enough form to score first-up from a wide gate. He won a trial at Terang on April 21 and then ran a handy second to an Emma Stewart rival at Melton a week later. This isn’t a strong race and he’s happily on top. ALLGOOD VINNIE (11) has smashed the line his past two starts driven cold and will be right in this, ALCATRAZ GIRL (2) looks the early leader from gate two and did go all the way from the front at Bendigo on April 22, while HOME AND DRY (4) gets the services of James Herbertson and is very competitive in this grade.
