Barra Mundy has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. HERE FOR CHEQUES (1) ran on well behind a smart one 28 days ago over this course and distance. He draws for a similar run this time around and he will find this easier than recent efforts. Ticking along nicely without winning but gets his chance today. JUSTAMIDDY (5) steps up to this trip for just the third time, though he should get every chance from an inside barrier. He's nicely weighted considering his recent form and if he can run up to his latest figures, he should be right in the finish. BARRA MUNDY (4) is hard to knock on recent form and rises in trip again today. He should be prominent from the barrier and he has placed at this track and trip previously. He's an improving type who can give a bold sight from on the speed. BELLE JOURNEE (6) just missed over the mile last start and rises to this distance today. Back to her best last start and a repeat will see her go close. RED DWARF (2) has claims jumping back up in trip after a good run last time out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Here For Cheques can salute.
