FLING IT RAINBOW (4) worked forward from a similar barrier to find the lead and kept kicking only to find one better last start at this circuit. That was his third successive placing so the hoof is on the till. Can go one better. BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE (3) had a tough draw on the back row last time so there was plenty of merit in the effort to finish fourth at this circuit. Has the benefit of a good draw. Strong claims.. FLOATING MOUNTAIN (8) draws for a trail and is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance at Ballarat. MASSIF CENTRAL (1) came from this barrier when runner-up here last time. Go well again.

Draws the pegs and is a chance to go one better. |
