MURRAY FACTOR (1) improved last start to finish third over 1m3/4f at Geelong after being in the firing line on the corner. Has the talent to build on that encouraging effort last start. AMERICAIN MISS (3) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out over 1m3f at Hamilton, finishing second and beaten half a length after being in the firing line on the corner. Has the class to take care of this field. SHARMA PRINCESS (4) was safely held when eighth last time out over 1m2f at Stawell, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a win at Naracoorte at the previous outing. Finds a suitable assignment and can rediscover winning form. LORD GOLDBERG (2) finished 6 lengths adrift in sixth last time over 1m2f at Stawell in a disappointing performance. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
