|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of pace with Lunch Money and The Mask up front, pressured by Hamilton Hero and Yannakis. THE MASK (7) will strip fitter for this after a solid run first-up at Greyville, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths over 1200m. Fitter again and course and distance placed. Anticipating a big run this time. COUNTER ATTACK (13) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Greyville All Weather, finishing fourth and only 2 lengths from the winner at the end of 1200m. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. YANNAKIS (6) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 2 lengths when seventh in a 1000m contest at this track four weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. MASK ON (1) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Greyville All Weather, beaten 1.4 lengths into seventh. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
