Prize Money: $1,530

DIPLOMAT (2) made light work of a wide draw last time with a strong early sectional and clocking 19.75 in a 3 length win at Healesville over 350m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Great chance to get the job done again. DARNUM DIESEL (4) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (26.57) last time in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 at this track. Has a good record here including six wins. The form out of last race has been strong. Can do much better this time. NO MORE EXTRAS (3) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at Ballarat over 450m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Deserves serious consideration again. LUCA SKYWALKER (6) will give backers a sight.

Good effort to win last start by a neck over 450m at Ballarat in a handy (25.80), beating Cosmic Reward. Strongly fancied last time and lived right up to expectations. Stick with him.
