GOING: N

PRYDES EASIFEED PACE 1720m

Track: GOOD      

ALOT LIKE LOUIE (9) has been performing well since winning from this barrier here four back, last time racing parked but fighting well to go under by just a nose at Bendigo. Big chance with even luck. CLEAR LEFT (2) was good at this circuit and distance last week, coming from this same barrier to be beaten only 2.4m. Up in grade but should enjoy the favours so can play a role again. PESCI (8) draws for a nice trail and is working up to a win having placed in his last three outings. CRIME WRITER (1) wasn't too far away when coming from this barrier in a higher-graded race last time. Can be competitive in this line-up. VEE EM GEE MACRAY (5) has won fresh before and has been readied with a trial so is worth keeping safe.
