Plenty of pressure primarily from Lugarno, Debello and Line Of Fire. The promising ENTER THE DRAGON (11) made it three wins from just five starts when he led from the outset and easily defeated a BM64 field over 1400m at Kembla last start. Should have no trouble with the extra 100m so despite a class rise can win again. MICKEY'S MEDAL (2) missed the bob after a two-horse war last time out over 1550m at the Kensington track. Drops a little in class this time and strips fitter at the third run back. Poses a serious threat. RUSH ATTACK (5) didn't have the best of luck in running and was only 1.2 lengths off the winner in a 1500m Rosehill Midway recently. Distance specialist who looks ideally placed to set the record straight. LUGARNO (14) disappointed in the closing stages at Rosehill last time. Worth another chance at the third run back from a spell. BESTOWER (10) has won two from three when second-up so expect sharp improvement on a fair effort when resuming in a Newcastle Provincial Championship qualifier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Enter The Dragon to win again.
