THAILESS (14) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Moonee Valley over 6f after being in contention all the way. Taking on a better line-up this time but she deserves plenty of thought. RIVKIN (4) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 5f at Warrnambool when he was prominent throughout. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to take this out. GEORGIE GET MAD (1) finished fourth when when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at Moonee Valley after racing on the pace for much of the way. Will give backers a sight. BOLTSAVER (8) caught the eye last start over 6½f at Wodonga, coming from the tail and running on strongly to score by 0.8 lengths. Is going okay this campaign, recording three wins and three minor placings from nine starts. Best form too good to ignore.
