FIRE TRIBE (1) finds it hard to win with just one success from 14 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 6¾f at Wyong, beaten 3.5 lengths. Nicely placed to figure in the outcome. AL RAS BLUES (7) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 1m at this track, finishing fourth and beaten 2 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. MIZELLA (8) finished out of the money two starts back then she got a long way back and was beaten 7 lengths when fifth in a 6¾f contest at Beaumont (Newcastle) two weeks ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. Lay-off. No surprise to see him in contention.
