NICO (4) returned from a lay-off last start with a modest fifth over 4½f in Listed grade at this track (Dirt), beaten 1.5 lengths. Has a solid record at this venue with 10 wins from 30 starts. Will find this much easier. Major player. LITTLE ROO ROO (1) ran ninth at his latest appearance over 4½f at this track, clocking in 4 lengths from the winner. Has a solid record here with eight wins from 17 starts. Hard to go past. PENGUIN POWER (2) missed the placings last time out over this distance in stakes class at this track (Dirt), beaten 1.5 lengths. Has a very good record here including 19 wins from 36 starts. Should be competitive. AMIDSHIPS (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.3 lengths from the winner in second over 4½f at this track. No surprise to see him in the frame.
