HIGHWAY STRIP (6) showed ability at his only start back on April 26 when second over 6f at Moruya. Ran seventh in a trial at Moruya over 4f130yards. Will be better for that race experience and should prove tough to beat again. DEKADANCE (7) was beaten just a head last start when second in a small field over 5f21yards at Moruya on a soft ground. Will be fitter for that run, looks a winning chance. ROCAS GRANDES (3) finished ninth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 7f at Gundagai, beaten 2.5 lengths. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. GHOST WALKER (1) was prominent at the turn and finished third last time over 5f196yards at Gundagai when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 3.5 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge.
