A BOOK OF DAYS (4) turned in a moderate midfield finish when resuming from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago over 6f at Cranbourne. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Sure to be in the finish. SPIN THE REWARD (1) finished fifth over 5½f at Murtoa when resuming last start, beaten only a long neck. Meeting a tougher field but with added fitness he is capable of a big performance. ZOUGHANDI (7) finished 2.75 lengths from the winner in fifth last start after being in contention on the turn over 6f at Warrnambool, an improvement on his when resuming sixth at Hamilton the run before. Going up a level this time but he is up to the challenge. PADSTOW POLLY (12) has not won for a long while. Last raced on September 21 when beaten 7 lengths into sixth at Pooncarie over 5f. Likely improver who should be thereabouts.
