Race Tip

UPTOWN BOY (20) is a five-start maiden who returned last time and finished sixth at Bendigo over 7f, beaten 4.5 lengths. Drawn to enjoy a nice trail just off the pace. Expected to be in the finish. SAMURAI (6) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound third over 6½f at Bendigo. Nicely placed to take this out. FIGHTING EDGE (1) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound second over 6f at Pakenham when he made late ground. This doesn't look as hard so he is a key runner. RUNAWAY SOUL (4) was in contention on the bend and finished second last time over 6½f at Ararat, beaten a long neck. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
