These were the runners that caught the eye at Saturday's Flemington 5 June meeting.
Race 4: Banjo Peterson Series Heat 2 (2500m)
Oak Heart was the run of the race siting 3-4 wide for the duration for the second time this preparation and still finishing thereabouts.
There is no doubt Oak Heart is overdue for a win but be weary as the hard runs will begin to take their toll on the five-year-old.
Race 7: Ken Cox Handicap (2000m)
Don’t jump off the Freedman trained Marchelle Belle.
The form guide will show a whopping defeat but the consistent mare was given no chance going at break-neck speed over the first half of the race and knocking up on the turn.
Race 8: Eugene Gorman Handicap (1800m)
You can take nothing away from the winner Red Buttons who did all the work and carried weight to beat the in-form Tinamou.
Red Buttons looks to have come back in as good a form as ever and will take some beating in anything it contests this time in.
