BODHI BUZZ (6) was strongly fancied latest and proved too good with a 1.75 lengths win at this track in a handy 21.88. Has a tricky draw to overcome but has the ability and in winning form. Expected to be right there at the finish again. LUCKY FIREBALL (1) crossed over from out wide last start before finishing second (22.00) at this track in a Grade 5 over 380m. Expected to feature. COCOA EXPRESS (8) is having first try over this longer journey. Strong winner last time by 4.5 lengths at this track in Grade 5 in one of the quickest times on the program (21.70). Looks well placed here and among the chances.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd over 380m at this track beaten 5.5 lengths (22.23) behind Harper Spiller in a Grade 5 on October 20. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
