SHE'S WIRED (2) had the drop on the lead and went on to be beaten 3.5 lengths into third (30.54) at The Meadows in a Grade 5 over 525m. Must come into calculations. FIGHTING BOXER (8) continued his winning form with another strong run after tracking the lead to make it back to back wins, scoring at this track over 515m (29.76). One of the prime contenders. GALLOPING RED (4) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing seventh (30.59) in a Grade 5 at this track. Should be in this for a long way. TARGET RANGE (7) can run a bold race on best form.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Warragul over 460m in 26.09. Followed that up with a minor placing over 515m at this track at Grade 5 three days ago. Can't recommend him in this.

Jumped well at this track two runs back then again settled forward and finished third at The Meadows last start over 525m. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.
