Prize Money: $3,340

BELFAST SPOT (2) comes off an average performance last start when sixth at Sandown over 515m behind Ayden's Warrior (30.38) in a Mix 3/4. Was in the money the start prior. Form from his last run is proving strong. Ready to return to form. CRUZADO (7) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fifth (33.69) in a Grade 5 at Traralgon. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MAXIMUM REED (5) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 2.5 lengths at this track in a handy 31.00 beating Winning Ratio. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. PAW AMALFI (8) is worth consideration.

Comments

Was out of placings last time (30.38) at Sandown in a Mix 3/4, finishing sixth and beaten 9 lengths. Yet to win but has placed 10 times from this draw. Looks suited and should go close.
