ROMAN PARTY (4) latest effort finished 3rd on August 4 over 498m at this track behind Amber Annie beaten 8 lengths (29.34) in a Grade 5. Looks suited and should go close. FEDERAL HARRY (2) is generally an honest type in the frame at six of 17 starts but missed the placings last time when sixth (22.63) over 380m at this track. Form here sound including three wins. Looks well placed here and has the ability. Go well. WYNDRA ALL SMOKE (6) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Grade 3/4 at Rockhampton. Key player on best and worth another try. RACCOON RUSTY (7) has claims fresh from a recent placing at this track and distance.
