RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MET WITH A SHRUG (7) has ordinary recent numerical form, but she broke on a couple of occasions before being outclassed in a hot Vicbred Super Series heat behind Group 1 winner I Am Wilma. Wind the clock back four starts to mid-August and the David Murphy-trained runner was second to The Preacher and before that finished runner-up to At The Distance in a 0-50 grade event. This is a very suitable drop back in class to a 0-42, and on her best behaviour she should give this a real shake. CHINSKI (4) has the speed to lead and brings in very sound form with recent runner-up placings at Echuca and Ballarat, and before that had excuses but still beat KYVALLEY MISTY (6) in a race at Maryborough. The latter won subsequent to that and is the other key hope, while LITTLE TEDEY (5) made a mistake last time but had looked ready to win on the back of a couple of good efforts prior. BACK: MET WITH A SHRUG (7) – 2 units (win)
