Prize Money: $8,785

CRUISE COMMANDER (3) had been racing well prior to his last start fifth at Angle Park following a Mix 6/7 win three back with a third placing. Can turn form around here. COUSIN SAL (4) was a Grade 4/5 winner (34.50) two back then found trouble in the run and fell at The Gardens last time. Rates a leading chance on best. REGAL SPENCER (7) was out of in the placings when fifth last time but three runs back clocked a handy 29.50 win over 515m at Sandown. Has the ability and can find winning form again. MONUMENT (1) was in the money last time at this track (30.18) in a Grade 5, finishing a 2.5 lengths third. Has two wins already from this draw.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 4.5 lengths in 30.30, beating Paw Vine. Last start finished 5th on September 19 over 525m at this track behind Paw Orenthal beaten 3.5 lengths (30.25) in a Grade 5. Well placed and among the chances here.

Missed the frame last start when fifth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Looks a leading contender on best and expected to bounce back.

Missed the frame last start when fifth and beaten 9 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at Sandown three back. Best figures puts him right in this and well worth another chance.

Backs up after finishing 5th on September 21 over 450m at Shepparton in a Grade 4/5. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Comes to this track for the first time. Comes off an average run last start over 720m at Wentworth Park when sixth behind Stilton Shine (42.65) in Grade 5. Likely to find this a bit tough.
