Emergencies in the first will have the chance to step up as we had the scratchings of 3, 4, 8 and 9 by Friday afternoon. 12 will come out as well after debuting at Colac Friday. That leaves two newcomers. ZERCARDY has had five jumpouts overall (all with Paddy Bell on board) and has looked encouraging winning a couple on both wet and dry. Last seen scoring at Camperdown on Jan 19, leading and kicking well clear to score by 5L. Big chance here. CRACKED IT (also in at Kyneton Tuesday) has had January jumpouts at Avoca and Great Western and shown plenty of speed. She won her first and was only just beaten in her latest. As I type this Teo Nugent had ridden five winners over the previous two days so you're allowed to look at him on board UNA GENTLE with some amount of confidence. She has really lifted her game with blinkers back on for the latest two.
