LEMON TWIST (6) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 1207m at this track when he was always up in the leading division. Nicely placed to take this out. NORTHERN ECHO (4) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fifth. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. LUKA GRAZIE (3) returns after a spell of ten weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1308m at Grants Pass. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with two minor placings. Definite top-three chance. SUIT ME UP CHARLIE (7) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 9 lengths away in eighth over 1207m at this track. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
