CLINTON MCDONALD · BEAU MERTENS · 3yo Colt
Drops out of a BM70 after finishing fourth at Sale on heavy ground, beaten a length and a half by Kahhof when near the top of betting. Before that he won his Maiden at Geelong by three lengths as an odds-on favourite, beating Silky Seth with plenty in hand. Wet form is solid and the Geelong Maiden win in a gives him a genuine winning case.
