SMOKIN' GIANT (7) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 2050m at this track, beaten 11 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Strips fitter and can feature. NO NEW TRICKS (5) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing sixth over 1500m at Mornington. Rates highly in this line up. Gets his chance. TIGHT GRIP (9) was always well out of his ground when 5 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1500m at Mornington last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Cranbourne the run before. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. JAKK'S FORTUNE (4) travelled on-pace last time out over 1500m at Mornington and dug deep when pressured but found one better. Sure to prove hard to run down again.
