Stony Creek Race 2 - Meeniyan Hotel After Party Mdn Plate
MR MARGOLIN (6) wasn't fancied on debut but ran very well, sticking on well finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1400m at Pakenham. Can open winning account this time. HOT OPERA (8) is a two-start maiden who returned last time and finished fifth at Kyneton over 1479m, beaten 4.5 lengths. Can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. I'M HOT TOO (5) is a three-start maiden who finished eighth at his most recent outing over 1500m at Caulfield Heath after he got a long way back in the run. Cannot be ruled out. KADDARI (9) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at Werribee over 1600m. Long overdue and will be hard to hold out. ELITE PETE (1) mixes form but capable on best form.

At the latest run 4th of 10 at Moe Mdn-Sw on February 22 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Devine Grunt carrying 59.5kg at $7.
