MACHETE (7) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1200m at Sandown-Lakeside, finishing fifth and beaten 2 lengths. Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish. BRUTAL EYES (2) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 3.5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at Pakenham. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. LENNYSTAR (4) returned last time with a solid third at Sale over 1100m. Must raise the bar but a big run is on the cards. THUNDER HAWK (10) returns from a spell of six months and is having her first run for a new yard. Finished fifth at Bendigo over 1300m when first-up last time in work. Placed in a recent trial.
