AKINA DASH (4) sat on the speed and lifted strongly to open his account last start by 0.8 lengths at this track over 435m (24.74). Rates on top again. HAMISH ROSE (3) had been in super honest form hitting the frame two times on end before finishing fourth (25.23) at this track last time. Cannot be underestimated. WOODSIDE CRUISER (1) hit the ground running last start and was never headed (22.98) at Warragul in Bottom Up - Grade 5 over 400m. Expected to measure up again. HEYFIELD HONEY (2) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to atone.
