RAMIUS (1) was in contention all the way and fought on for second last start over 6½f at Newcastle, making it three minor placings in a row. Finds a suitable assignment and can discover winning form. LUCILAGO (9) is a seven-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 2.75 lengths when sixth over 5½f at Hawkesbury. Backmarker who gets home hard. One of the leading chances. HOLY MACKEREL (17) showed good early dash when resuming last start and held on well to finish a long neck back in second over 6½f at Moree. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. CASDAEMON (15) finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5½f at Scone when he worked home well, beaten 2.5 lengths. In the right race and is one of the big hopes.
