NO MAGPIES (8) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing one length behind Dragon Black in 17.09 and recording a new PB here. Smart run latest and looks a key chance here. FLASH ABBEY (5) turned in a solid run last start over 300m at this track finishing 4th and beaten only 4.5 lengths (17.39). Yet to win here but has run some good races. Cannot be taken lightly. DROP AND RUN (2) box seated before sticking on well to finish 3.5 lengths away in second (23.53) at Geelong in a Grade 7 over 400m. Can feature again. ACHTUNG BABY (6) was in the money last start and poses a threat again.
