MALECON (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 4 lengths away in second over 1m at this track when he was always up in the leading division. Likely improver with strong prospects. ZOUGO BOSS (2) finished fifth when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found a couple better over 6¾f at Ipswich, beaten only 1.3 lengths. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. LADY BOSSA NOVA (9) is yet to break through in 12 runs. Finished ninth at her last appearance over 1m at this track on September 28 after she got a long way back in the run. Worth including in this suitable contest. WINDFLOWER (6) could only manage to finish fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths, at her latest appearance over 1m at Ballina after she got a long way back in the run. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes.
