Prize Money: $1,350

SUPER SKUNK (1) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 2nd at this track over 300m. Got the money at his only try from this box. Can measure up this time. BARRELLED (7) carved over from wide out and boxed on strongly to finish 1.5 lengths away in second (17.56) behind Redeem A Arcadia at this track. Bold showing expected. SPITFIRE GEORGE (2) produced a moderate run last time when fifth at this track over 300m behind Redeem A Arcadia (18.03) in a Grade 4/5. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from three attempts. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. SUNDOWN (3) will be thereabouts while fresh. Something for the Multiples: LITTLE BEAST (8)

Suited by inside box. Last start finished 2nd over 300m at this track beaten 1.5 lengths (17.69) behind Jean's Rum in a Grade 5 on August 22. Won at his only start from this draw. Top chance to make it two from two.

Returns from a nine weeks break and only other fresh up run was on debut when placed over 300m at this track. Well placed and among the chances here.

Backs up quickly after winning by 1.75 lengths at this track (17.66) beating Jimary Clover in a Grade 5 on August 26 three days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (17.56) at this track over 300m. Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.
