UPCOMING

BEN BRISBOURNE · PATRICK MOLONEY · 4yo Gelding

Returns from a lengthy lay-off after being well beaten on debut at Wangaratta, where he began slowly, settled rearward and faded late on heavy ground. A trial win at Flemington last week is a positive sign and Patrick Moloney has a strong track profile, but race-day evidence remains thin. Trial win last week gives some hope, but he has plenty to prove.
