GUNNAFLY (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.75 lengths from the winner in third over 1m4 1/4f at Geelong after being in the firing line on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. CELTIC HERO (1) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 1m at Bairnsdale, finishing third and beaten 0.8 lengths. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. SIDEREAL (5) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 1m2f at Warracknabeal. Bold showing expected. SAMBUCUS (7) finished 6 lengths adrift in eighth last time over 1m2 1/4f at Cranbourne in a disappointing performance. Open to improvement and should be about the money.
