CO PILOT (6) settled down midfield and held his position to the line when finishing 4th (28.96) at this track. Tough to beat if on-song. BARNSLEY (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (29.22) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Should be thereabouts. DINOSAUR BONES (3) is in top form, scoring by one length (29.03) over 498m at this track and making it back to back wins. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Bold showing expected again. DIFFERENT HERE (1) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.
