Race Tip

OAKFIELD PANTHER (13) has been in the betting recently but hasn't managed to live up to market expectations. Most recently finished eighth over 5f at Tamworth, beaten 4.5 lengths. One of the leading contenders in this suitable contest. IRON POWER (3) finished in the placings over 4f at this track before going for a break and returns here a gelding. Generally runs well when resuming. Expected to be in the finish. STELLER EAGLE (8) is fresh from a lay-off of six-and-a-half months and did hit the frame when last resuming at Swan Hill over 4f190yards. In a different yard now. Will be forward for this after a recent trial win at Toowoomba Inner Track. Sound top-three prospects. MALTALI (14) finished third last time over 4f65yards at Gatton when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1.5 lengths. Capable of another bold effort.
