BLUE LINE (5) has recently been thereabouts without winning, the latest effort a seventh over 5f at Mt Barker. Has the blinkers removed. Rates highly and a bold showing is expected. VIA MONTE (4) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fifth, beaten 3 lengths, over 6f at Esperance. Well placed and expected to feature. COUSIN IVAN (6) was a narrow winner last time over 6f at Mt Barker with this rider Austin Galati aboard. Gets some weight relief this time so he is one of the contenders again. FALSE STATEMENT (3) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 6f at Geraldton. Reunites with Jordan Turner which is a proven winning combination. Deserves respect.
