Prize Money: $2,800

EMERALD DRAGON (7) boasts a strong record this journey here with five wins and two minors from 14 tries. Was out of the placings last time (23.14) at Albion Park in a Grade 3/4, finishing fourth and beaten 8 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. CALYPSO SPIRIT (1) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with three wins and a placing from eight tries. Was out of the placings last time (25.86) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing seventh and beaten 11 lengths. Looks one of the chances. SUNSHINE BANJO (8) goes very well this course and distance starting 17 times for six wins and five minors. Recorded a nose win (17.45) in a Mix 5 last time at this track. Suited here and expected to run well. TOMMY TROUBLE (3) placed last time out at big odds - worth considering.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (25.86) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 11 length seventh. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from three starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
