ETEREA (6) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 4.5 lengths away in second over 1m2 1/2f at Nhill. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MASTER OF ZERPRISE (3) was never in contention when 10 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1m2 1/2f at Gawler last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Morphettville Parks the run before. This is a nice drop in grade so he can find the winners' list. BACK IN ACTION (1) bounced back last start and got the job done by 1.75 lengths over 1m2f at Colac. Finds an easier race and can make it back-to-back wins. ALPINE BEAU (5) was a winner over 1m1 1/2f at Oakbank last time out, dropping out early before coming home with a powerful run to score by a head. Samuel Payne who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Solid claims on best form.
