OUTBACK BANDIT (8) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Meeting a tougher field but with added fitness he is good enough to take this out. DISCOVERED GOLD (6) was prominent from the outset and fought on for third last start over 5¼f at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Should be handy in the run. Looks well placed this line-up so expect another big run. JUST BINGO (10) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 5 lengths over 6f at Bundaberg. Jumps from a wide draw but he is worth including. THE HAIRDRESSER (7) hasn't been too far away of late, the latest effort a fourth, beaten 2.75 lengths, at Mackay over 6½f. Has an outside gate but can sneak into the finish.
