Prize Money: $2,655

BARRAMUNDI LOU (1) turned in a plain performance last time when eighth at this track over 400m behind Creeping Tiger (23.86) in a Grade 3/4. Was in the money prior to that. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Has ability and looks hard to stop. AUSSIE OSCAR (3) goes very well at the course and distance with seven wins and a placing from 15 starts. In the money last time at this track (23.20) in a NG, finishing a 5.5 lengths second. Makes strong appeal on best. DASHING MIMCO (2) showed good early burn but run over late to finish 6th at this track in NG company. Solid record here at the distance winning 11 races. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. LAURIE'S RUPEE (6) has strong claims after a top-three finish last time out.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished last in a Grade 3/4 on August 29 over 400m at this track behind Creeping Tiger beaten 15 lengths (23.86). More than capable and well placed to find his best form.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won easily by 6 lengths at this track (22.83) beating Daphne Zacapa in a Free For All on August 22. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 400m at this track. That followed a win two back in 23.02 beating Tommy Tsunami over 400m at this track. Will be tested in this company.
