PINCHBECK (3) is racing well without being able to break through, the latest effort a third over 1200m at Mt Gambier a week ago. Handy draw will assist so he gets his chance. BASE OF FIRE (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Mt Gambier, beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth after being in the firing line on the corner. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. ROYAL TELEPHONE (7) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at Strathalbyn over 1100m. Has the class to produce a better result. CANIDAE (8) turned in an eye-catching run over 1400m at Balaklava last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. Tough to stop again.
