CHAMPAGNE SABRE (3) turned in a strong run two starts ago at Warracknabeal then failed to back it up over 1m3f at Bendigo last time, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. Coming back in trip suits so can bounce back. ARTSPACE (1) is a seven-start maiden who could only manage to finish sixth after being in the firing line on the bend at his latest appearance over 1m2 1/4f at Moe. Well placed on this occasion and gets his chance to break the ice. FINNHUGH (4) is a six-start maiden who could only manage to finish seventh after being in contention on the bend at his latest appearance over 1m3f at Bendigo. Worth including in this suitable contest. MILLEPIED (6) was beaten 6 lengths into sixth over 1m1/2f at Geelong last time out. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
