TROOPER KNUCKLE (6) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 7f at Canberra. Should be peaking now and is ready to win. INVERTATIONAL (7) was allowed to drift back from an outside draw last time but found the line strongly to finish fourth, beaten 0.8 lengths, over 1m at Wagga. Sure to prove tough to stop. EASTERN GLOW (1) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 2 lengths when sixth over 6½f at Rosehill three weeks ago. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. ASTUNNER (10) showed good early dash and led throughout to score by a neck last time out over 1m at this track. Among the chances again.
