DEADLINE (3) did a good job to finish second two starts ago, then recorded a comfortable win last time out, scoring by 9 metres over 1980m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. His last-start form is good enough to put him right in the finish. THE COALMAN (6) finished third last start over 2000m at this track, beaten 10 metres. That was an improvement on the unplaced effort at Mt Harding the run before. Meets some better types this time, but another big run is on the cards. QUICKER THAN QUICK (8) cops a tough draw but is the next best after finishing runner-up over 2000m at this track last time out. COUNTRY GOLD (2) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight. Each way value.
