FAST REPLY (2) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (34.72) at this track behind Espoir in a R/A FIN. Stalked the pace but found the line strongly. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Leading chance again. HECTOR DARCY (3) jumped well and was right in the mix before fading out of it late when 6th over 600m at this track in a Grade 5. In the mix. POINT MAN (1) turned spotting a big start finishing eighth (30.97) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Should be thereabouts. RED DAY (4) is a last start winner who rates one of the chances again.

Hit the frame latest (34.72) when second at this track in a R/A FIN. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and three places from five starts. Looks suited and should go close.

Comes off a (30.04) win last time, scoring by a head in a Grade 4/5 over 525m at this track. Strong record off the draw with four wins and two minors from nine starts. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
