BABALOLA (5) is nearing a win, the latest effort a close second over 1300m at Bendigo. Handy draw will assist so this is his chance to grab that elusive victory. SERIN (9) finished 3.5 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1200m at Donald four weeks ago as $4.8 favourite. Steps up in journey today. Tackling tougher opposition but expected to measure up. DISMOUNT (6) turned in an encouraging run first-up, settling well back then winding up nicely to finish fourth over 1200m at Echuca. Outsprinted in the run home but kept coming and looks suited by the extra ground. Can run on into the finish here. EYES WIDE SHUT (10) showed good early dash and led for much of the way before weakening out of it when 11 lengths away in 12th over 1525m at Geelong. Sure to give a sight.
