GOING: G

LADBROKES ODDS SURGE PACE 1680m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 11)    

RAGING ON (8) showed plenty of fight to salute last start over 2200m at this track, getting home by just 1.5 metres. Won't spend a penny from this draw but luck may play a role on the bell lap. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to test this field. GOODTIME OSCAR (4) finished third last start over 2200m at this track, beaten 4 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 2090m at Hobart. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running a big race. CAPTAIN CHEDDAR (2) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 2200m at this track nine days ago.
