PORT RUN MACHINE (5) scored two runs back then registered a commanding victory last start, scoring by 6 metres over 1680m at this track. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running another big race. BARBER SHOP (4) made a winning start to his career two weeks ago, getting home by 5 metres over 1609m at Hobart. Facing a tougher assignment but he will benefit from that last run and is up to the task. HEZA RIPPER (3) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1609m at Hobart. Should run a big race. RAINBOW RANGER (1) finished 17 metres back in fourth over 1609m at Hobart recently at his first race start. Strips fitter and can improve.
