REAL PUNTERS PLAY HERE TABTOUCH HANDICAP 1500m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

From the inside gate Where's My Lunch should be prominent along with Looks. LOOKS (7) missed narrowly when an equal favourite over the mile here last time out. The wide draw is a query, but he has plenty of early speed and can roll forward from out wide. Form out of his last start has been strong and he can get back to winning ways. WHERE'S MY LUNCH (3) led at Geraldton and was only caught late, beaten 0.5L off a month-long break. The inside draw should see him up on the speed and he's placed in both attempts at this track and trip. Should be in this for a very long way. GINGERS SISTER (11) finished off strongly to win in a photo finish at this track and trip last time out. She may be able to sit a touch closer today from an inside barrier and she drops in weight today. Can feature in the finish. MAKIN PROPHETS (1) wasn't far away in a much stronger race last start and he can make his presence felt. FIGHT IN FLIGHT (10) won't be far away over her preferred track and trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: Looks can get the job done in the last.

Better than he showed last start and he can bounce back to form.
