OUR EMMBAR (11) went close at Geelong and then won a Maiden easily at Mornington over 1500m from the front. Has the gas to cross over and McDougall is a positive jockey engagement. Peaks and can take the next step. GIFT OF ORATORY (3) resumes for a leading metro barn and kicking off at the mile won't bother. Has raced in stronger than this and has trialled sharply over 1100m at Sale. Presented on song this is winnable. GRAHAM (7) was good bat Echuca and will be better for it. Maps well and will get every chance. SCANDOVAL (18) went close at Hamilton and was heavily backed following easily winning a Nhill maiden. This is harder but he is in the mix.
