WHY ME (3) was allowed to drift back from an outside draw last time but found the line strongly to finish seventh, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 7f at Bunbury. Capable of overwhelming this field late in proceedings. SIR BEAR A LOT (1) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with success as favourite over 7½f at this track a week ago, getting home by 0.9 lengths. Natasha Faithfull scored on him last time and retains the mount. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ODIN OMEN (5) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Belmont Park, finishing fourth and only 1.5 lengths from the winner at the end of 1m. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is a major player. THE MIGHTY BUTCH (2) registered his first win last start over 7½f at this track, getting home by half a length. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped.
