THE DEVILS FLAME (6) did a good job to come from the back row for a 3.7m third on debut at Terang. That was an encouraging effort and he is open to improvement. Has winning claims. AMERICAN VICTORY (1) was checked early so got back from this draw last time but chased well to place at Stawell. Has only once missed the top-four in her last eight starts and has placed every time she has raced over this distance here. Chance to break through. THEROUX (8) placed fresh then came from a wider barrier when midfield last week. Draws for a trail and should be close to peak fitness. Well Said gelding TALKBABYTALK (4) debuts off back-to-back trial placings. Keep safe.
