Prize Money: $3,135

VERMENTINO (1) won again in quick time after racing on speed to make it two in a row, scoring by a nose (19.83) at Q Lakeside over 352m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Form reads well for this. SO REFINED (7) boasts a strong record this course with two wins and two minors from five tries. Scored by 7 lengths last time (25.58) in a Grade 5 over 450m at this track. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. ROBELL SETH (3) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (26.33) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has ability and can measure up. WOLFGANG (2) is not to be discarded.

Missed the frame latest (25.92) when sixth over 450m at this track in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Looks one of the chances.

Missed the frame last time but prior to that was in the money twice in a row including a narrow loss at big odds two back when second (30.07) over 520m at Q Parklands. Drawn out wide and will need to find best.
