MAJOR BLITZ (7) scored an authoritative win when fresh from a spell last start at Bendigo, leading to score 4.7 metres The driver has some work to do from this much wider starting position but he should be improved and won his lone attempt at this shorter distance. RANGER RICK (4) has come from the back row to place in both appearances so far this prep. Has been freshened since finishing second and 4.7 metres from the winner at Hamilton. Won the only time he raced here and could peak tonight. GUNFORHIRE (5) should be ready to peak fourth up and is racing well, making it back-to-back placings when third at Terang last week. SCHERGER THAT (6) came from this barrier to win two back at Melton and was good again when beaten 1.7m into third there last time out. Go well.
