BLANDFORD LAD (2) is looking to improve on a last-start sixth on the flat over 1m5f at Ballarat on June 30. Tackles a better race this time but is up to the task. CLEAVER (3) was unplaced two runs ago (2m1f) at Sandown-Lakeside then was a modest seventh last time in a hurdle (2m) at Warrnambool. Cannot be left out in this more suitable contest. CROSSHILL (4) did a reasonable job when he finished third (2m3 1/2f) at Sandown-Lakeside two runs back. Less effective last time when 9 lengths away in fourth (2m3f) at Casterton. Sure to be thereabouts. RAISE YOUR SIGHTS (8) was unplaced in a in a hurdle (2m) at Hamilton. Found the frame last start in a much better performance (2m1 1/4f) at Warrnambool, beaten 2 lengths. Will be there at the finish.
