Prize Money: $4,565

TIGER ROCKS (8) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (35.20) last time in a R/A FIN at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Looks the one to beat on his best form. MOTOR CITY ROSSI (3) broke well and quickly mustered speed to win over the 570m at Traralgon two runs back then settled forward again when finishing third at this track last start. Can feature again. PAW NIMBUS (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (23.63) in a Special conditions H at Horsham. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Should play a prominent role. ZIPPING SINGH (2) has a solid strike rate from this box.

Good effort to win last start by 3.5 lengths over 600m at The Meadows in a handy (34.38), beating Eventuate. Will find this a bit tougher, looks tested in this company.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 715m at this track. That followed a win two back in 28.52 beating Whodat Whiskey over 500m at Bendigo. Not far from winner last time but has the job ahead here.
