POPPIN' CHAMPAGNE (14) turned in a nice effort last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just 0.8 lengths from the winner in second over 7f at Pakenham after being in contention on the corner. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. MARLIN (3) finished 2.75 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1m3/4f at Sale, an improvement on his sixth at Stony Creek the run before. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. CAFE AWARD (13) was in the money on debut before finishing fourth last time, beaten 4 lengths over 1m at Wodonga. Going well and can feature again. CARLITO BRIGANTE (15) finished 2.25 lengths away in fifth at his last appearance over 1m at this track on January 27 after he was well back on straightening. Finds the right race and is worth consideration.
