RAFFALLI (4) finished third two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by a neck over 6½f at this track. Jade Hampson scored on him last time and retains the mount. Finds a suitable race and can build on that last-start success. SOUL SPIRIT (7) could only manage second as favourite last start over 6½f at this track, making it two minor placings from three starts this campaign. Likely to be in the finish again. HAMLET VON SNITZEL (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5½f at this track, beaten 7 lengths into sixth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. INFLUENTIAL JACK (2) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when third over 6½f at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
