Some BIG news about The Verdict, why it was a ‘special’ Saturday at Flemington, and Grahame Begg does it again! 

Michael Felgate is joined by Clayton Douglas ahead of Sunday’s Group 1 Manikato Stakes, with former Everest winner Giga Kick looking to bounce back second-up at Caulfield.

Douglas explains why the Moir Stakes proved an impossible race to make ground in, reveals the improvement Giga Kick has taken from his first-up run and says an ideal barrier gives the star sprinter his chance to return to his best.

There’s also discussion around his path beyond Sunday, including the possibility of an Everest slot, the Sydney Stakes and a return to Flemington for the Champions Sprint.

Ed Sadler checks in from Flemington after the first significant two-year-old jumpouts of the season, identifying several McEvoy juveniles to blackbook before assessing the Coolmore contenders including Natural Fling, Pocketfulofcash and The Next Episode.

Plus, Ben Asgari finds the best betting opportunities at Moe and gives his early thoughts on a huge Manikato Stakes meeting at Caulfield.
