DASHGROVE SHADOW (4) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 4 lengths (17.28) at this track. Better than last start and worth following up. APPLE JAM (3) followed a win in a handicap when jumping from the 6m at this track two runs ago with a sound third last start, beaten 7 lengths, in an A8 at this track over 462m (29.62). Back to a handicap now and will break off 5m. Flying of late and not to be underestimated. BURGESS LANA (6) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 6th at this track following on from a second place finish (29.40) there the start prior. Solid record here at the distance winning four races. Leading chance. WESTFIELD GEORGE (1) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.
