RUPEE SHARK (8) drew a squeeze box and was game in defeat when a close second, 1.5 lengths from the winner Paw Perez (23.35) at this track. Good beginner but will need a little luck early crossing from an outside draw. Can measure up this time. LAGOON OHIYESA (6) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start fourth (19.03) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Form from his last run is proving strong. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. AVOID ME (2) scored her maiden success two back then hit the frame last time when second and beaten 4 lengths at this track over 320m (19.06). Yet to win here but has run some good races. Hard to beat again here. WHAT A ROUGHY (4) drops in trip and can play a major role.
