Murvate has been ultra consistent in recent times and will be hard to hold out when stepping out at Grafton today.
The Brett Dodson-trained runner put two wins together before running a close second in the Open Walcha Cup last start.
Murvate (Race 2 #4) rates well here on the back of that effort and won at this C/D just two starts back in slightly easier company.
From barrier six in this small field would expect him to not be far away in the run and has shown enough in recent times to suggest he will be hard to beat here.
Raymond Spokes, who is yet to miss the placings when riding remains on board for this and if he can reproduce his recent form he will be hard to beat in this.
Primed To Win shapes up as the main danger having finished a close up fifth in both runs this campaign.
Up in the weights but gets a much needed 2kg claim from apprentice jockey and should get a good run from the inside draw.
Possesses a very good record at the course and over this distance and measures up very well here on what he has produced of late.
Power Receiver also comes into consideration having made his way into the placings his last two outings and is rarely too far away.
Yet to win here at his home course but has placed in eight of 13 outings and on best form looks pretty well placed here.
Goes up in trip for this where he has won previously and would not be surprised to see him in the finish again.
Dusty’s Felt looks the best of the rest having finished runner up in two of his last three outings but has failed to win in almost a year now.
Certainly not the roughest in this small field and is worth including in the multiples.
