LUCA SKYWALKER (2) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only from the winner Irinka Ashley in second(19.67) at Healesville. One of the leading chances. GALLOPING RED (5) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (26.53) at this track behind Dr. Exclaim in a Grade 5. Settled off speed and worked to the line nicely. Will give a great sight again. SMOOTH PRINCE (3) turned in a fair 5th placed finish last time at The Meadows over 600m (35.43). Has won four of 10 starts from this draw. Great chance to atone. DOONGALLA FLASH (4) has claims fresh from a recent placing.
