GREAT ESCAPE (5) continued a frustrating run for connections when a close second over 1400m at this track last time. Jumps from a good draw so a big run is anticipated. URASKYFULLASTARS (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was never in contention over 1400m at Waverley, beaten 15 lengths into eighth. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is capable of testing her rivals. PROCUL BOY (2) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last start over 1100m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. That followed a good win on debut at Waverley. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. HEADLINE NEWS (6) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Wanganui, beaten 7 lengths into eighth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
