Both ends of Victoria hosting meets on Sunday, Casterton Racecourse in the west and Sale in the east.
Best Bet
Verbosity has improved drastically at his last two starts when kept to shorter trips. Last time at Warracknabeal he was badly held up but showed an impressive turn of foot to get up and score in the last bound. This race should unfold for him and if he is within a length of the leaders at the 200m he can get over them late.
Recommended Price: $3.00
Confidence Level: 4/5
More Racing Tips
Katdeel looks a good chance of breaking his maiden here. The Dundeel gelding – formerly based in Queensland – made an excellent fist of his first Victorian run, beaten less than a length at Sandown. That looks the right form for this thin maiden.

Confidence Level: 4/5
Magnetic Prince has been racing well and gets his chance to record another win here. It’s his first run back to country grade in three starts but he has been more than competitive in better city races of late, not having finished further back than fifth in any of them. With some luck early from the draw he should be too good for them.
Recommended Price: $3.20
Confidence Level: 3.5/5
Masterful looks hard to beat in the closer from Sale. The gelding ran very well here six months ago at his first start for about a year, being wide without cover but sticking on well to finish fourth. The extra trip here holds no fears and he should get every chance from barrier five.
Recommended Price: $4.00
