ABDICATION (1) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just a head away in second over 5½f at Wodonga. Finds a suitable race and can make it to the winner's circle. LESCOT (2) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing third over 6f at this track. Looks a solid top-three prospect. FROWNED (9) finished 3.9 lengths away from the winner last time at Pooncarie and drops in the weights. Expected to measure up. Group 3 placegetter SMART ELISSIM (10) has been in the placings at his last two appearances, finishing second over 6½f at Swan Hill most recently. Sure to be about the mark again.
