A1 Signage (1 Win)

Prize Money: $1,530

HARTLAND BUDDY (4) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing eighth (26.60) last time in a T3 RSTW at Shepparton. Looks the one to beat on his best form.

CAVED IN (7) turned in a plain run last time when sixth at Shepparton over 390m behind Radiate (23.32) in a T3 Grade 7. Should be thereabouts. THREE VOTES NICK (6) should be thereabouts.
