Trainer bullish on long shots chances in the Victoria Derby

Trainer Archie Alexander is bullish on his Victoria Derby hope Teewaters. Teewsaters is a $19 chance with TAB in Saturday's race. The gelding has had five starts, for a maiden win over 2000m and three placings. He finished last in a 1330m maiden at Geelong in July, second in 1624m at Donald and third over 1000m. Alexander took Teetsaters to town to finish third behind Gunstock in the Group 3 Neds Classic at Caulfield on October 16.
