Prize Money: -

ABANOS (4) Winner last run around here. J Bartos and Matteo Bonetti enjoy a high success rate together. Been in the money each attempt this campaign. Suitably placed in this race. WISHPET (7) Not up to standard when 4th last run around here. Gab Agus is a plus. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. NATAM (2) Came in 5th last start at the track. Has the talent to rebound quickly. Should go close. APEX (3) In the money when 3rd last run here and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Goes down in weight. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive.

Solid effort when winning last run at this track. J Bartos and Matteo Bonetti are usually competitive together. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Strong chance to be considered.

Started $2.20 and below par when 4th last run here. Gab Agus is a pivotal booking. Gets back and needs luck. Win will not surprise.
