Prize Money: $2,335

SNAKE SURVIVER (8) returns from a four months break after failing to finish at Richmond last time but prior to that was failed to finish in a Mix two back. Suited here and worth another try fresh. BAD BOY BANJO (7) held his own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only 1.75 lengths (17.70) behind Despicable Leo at this track. Winning chance. PONY TAIL (3) led throughout when winning by a space two back hit the frame last time when second and beaten one length at this track (17.89). Good beginner aided by a nice draw. Must be included in calculations. KID KERMARO (1) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.
