Race Overview

EMISSARY (5) was well fancied when resuming. Unable to land good bets but he ran well in a race that turned into a real test first up from a break. That can do him the world of good and 2000m here can be ideal and his form on good ground is hard to knock. Really liked the return of VOW AND DECLARE (3) behind the race fit and firing RIGHT YOU ARE (7) and both have winning claims off that. Vow And Declare snapped a drought when winning the Zipping in the spring and that showed him as good now as he has ever been. MAROCCHINO (4) is rock solid in Perth. Will set the pace and kick on strongly. HUETOR (1) and YOUNG WERTHER (9) are others with form in the book that puts them right in the thick of the action and 2000m at Flemington is ideal for both.
