HEY BIG UN (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just one length from the winner in third over 1509m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. BROOKLYN ALLEY CAT (1) finished out of the money two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 10 lengths when sixth over 1509m at this track two weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. CLASSIC RICK (2) finished sixth two runs back at Canterbury Park (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 1.75 lengths as favourite after being in the firing line on the bend over 1207m at Horsemen's Atokad Downs (Dirt). This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. MASTER OF DISGUISE (5) ran below expectations last start, finishing sixth and beaten 25 lengths at this track over 1509m. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and two minor placings. Suitably placed so expecting a better run this time.
