FAGES (4) had the drop on the pace early but forged to the lead on the bend and drew clear to score (30.19) at this track in a Maiden over 525m. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Can continue the winning form. HONEY BUNNY (2) showed good speed to score (25.93) off a middle draw two back then off a similar box last time settled off pace and could manage only a 16 length 5th at Geelong (27.06). Cannot be taken lightly. HUDSON FLYER (5) placed two runs ago then again in the money last time when second (22.35) at Shepparton in a T3 Grade 7. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. NO IRON TEAM (7) cannot be dismissed although new to this venue.

He hasn't been setting the track on fire and faces tougher opposition here. Others preferred at this stage.

Lines up from box 2 for the first time after finishing a 16 length fifth at Geelong (27.06) in a Grade 7. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 30.19 with a 2 length win at this track over 525m. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Looks a major player.

Comments

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.75 lengths second (22.35) over 390m at Shepparton. Thereabouts at his last couple and is capable of better.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by a long neck at Shepparton (22.63) beating Miss Barbie in a Maiden on November 21. Others preferred on this occasion.
