SLEEPER (10) was never in contention when 5.5 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1590m at Wodonga last start, a less impressive effort than his first-up fourth at Kilmore the run before. Likely improver with strong prospects. WINGS OF CARMEN (9) was never in contention when 4 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1600m at Seymour last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Wodonga the run before. Is unbeaten in two starts here. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. NEWYORK MISSILE (16) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Wagga. Couldn't follow that up last time out when tenth over 1600m at Corowa, beaten 8 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. WARPAINTED (6) went forward from the low draw last start and sat on the pace before sticking on well to finish third over 1600m at Corowa. Likely improver with strong prospects.
