OLIMBA (1) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 4½f at Newcastle, beaten only a head after being prominent at the corner. Won't find this as tough so he is perfectly placed to score. SOUTH BULLAWAY (6) led early and was still in the firing line on the turn last start before tiring to finish sixth over 5f at Orange. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. ANTMAN (4) is a five-start maiden who could only manage to finish seventh at his latest appearance over 1m at Benalla after he gave away a big start. Expected to feature in the finish this time. INDEPENDENT SCOOP (5) finished second last time over 5f at Warren, beaten 0.7 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Likely improver with solid claims.
