EXCUSE THE MESS (5) was below latest but prior to that a B6 winner in quick time (28.45) at this track in a B6. This looks easier and expected to bounce back. FLOSSES FENDI (4) stalked the lead from trap 5 and boxed on well to finish half a length back in second (28.46) at this track in a B5 over 450m. Goes well out of this box with a win and 12 minor placings. Must be included in calculations. SPORTING MOANA (2) was game in defeat at the latest run, finishing third and beaten 2 lengths (28.58) behind Footfield Nala at this track. Ready to find winning form. RUN IN WATER (3) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.
