Expecting Cianna to bounce to the lead from a low draw. NORTHEAST EXPRESS (3) ran on strongly to finish on the winner's heels last start at Pakenham as the favourite. Is racing well this campaign with four placings from seven starts. Overdue and gets chance. ENERGY RAIDER (8) was in the money last start when third at Yarra Valley over 1968m and should be at peak now. Looks a top contender. PROLIX (10) backing up quickly after placing 10 day ago running third at this track. Back to something like her best last time – follow her up. CIANNA (6) placed second by 2 lengths last start at Ararat and expected to go forward here. Working up to a win and will give a sight. RIVERLEA VIRTUOSO (11) should give this a shake. SUGGESTED PLAY: Northeast Express is long overdue.
