Expecting Total Eruption and Pick A Pomodoro to pair off in front. TOTAL ERUPTION (10) progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1400m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SATELLITE WORLD (5) made progress last time out, finishing 5.5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 2400m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. PLAYMAKER (1) looks close to a win after finishing in the placings at the last couple of runs, the latest when third over 2400m at this track. Genuine contender. STRAIGHT RED (8) finished third over 2000m at Fairview All Weather two back then missed the frame last time out over 2400m at this track. The blinkers go on. Can feature with the right run.
