FRUIT ‘N’ VEG STAKES
 

on assumption the $1mill bonus is beyond reach for Free At Last I'm assuming the Perth Cup is her main mission which makes taking 2/1 in the Fruit N Veg an even more riskier proposition?!

grey matter
 

Just a few for the grey brigade at Mt Barker today - Hearnster and Moodometer (1st) and Norfolk Song (4th).

COLONEL REEVES STAKES
 

might just sit this one out. hard to see anything outside the first few in betting being realistic winning chances!

grey brigade
 

do you keep stats on how the greys are travelling overall steve?

Mt Barker
 

Race 1 - Mr Binks
Race 2 - Mon Titan Bay
Race 7 - Truck Talk

grey matter
 

No not really. Just a bit of an interest. Doubt if anything so simple would win in the long run but perhaps with some filters who knows ;) :)

go the greys
 

Hopefully a few more (winning) greys at Ascot tomorrow, steve ;)

(2) OUR BAHARE top pick his 2 runs since spell very good. (1) CAPTIOUS last start win Ballarat this distance excellent claim for young Ben Smith a plus. The David Hayes trained (9) BUCEPHALUS has been most consistent recently and no doubt will be in the thick of things again. (10) FOXTOWN could be the value runner if you can forgive his last start poor effort in the city.

FRUIT ‘N’ VEG STAKES
 

That draw puts Lock The Vault right in the thick of things. Deserves a win considering the number of times he's finished 2nd!

elli is working into top fitness and can win i think. artic park is poorly weighted but an e/w chance. obviously the fave is a very big chamce too and star laser is weighted to win
