The Bunyip (Up To 12 Wins) Grade 5 Series F Pr2 Di

Prize Money: $1,190

WIRRULLA MELVY (1) was strongly fancied latest and proved too good with a 2 length win at this track in a handy 23.08. Well suited by the inside box and likes the trip. Looks the one to beat. LOST AT SEA (2) hasn't set the world on fire of late, but is a fast beginner and could stick on. EBON COAST (10) disappointed last start over 400m at this track when beaten 3 len (23.22) on January 22. In the mix.
