MCKEON (1) placed last time (23.95) at this track in a NG, finishing third and beaten 4 lengths. Has already won three times from this draw. Rates a leading player. WESTERN LIES (2) was out of in the placings when sixth last time but prior to that produced a strong 23.28 win over 411m at this track. Smart winner two back and looks a key chance on that form. KOORINGA KATE (3) has a strong overall record having seven wins and four places from 16 starts but was out of the money last time when fourth (24.01) over 411m at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Meets a moderate line up and should run well. LAST RUPEE (8) will be thereabouts after recent top-three finishes.
