ELITE MAX (5) has a strong record this trip with three wins and four placings from eight starts. In the money last time at this track (30.77) in a HCP, finishing a head second. Looks a leading chance on best. NOIRS FLY (4) could only manage fourth two starts back breaking from 4m in a handicap at this track then finished runner-up on the flat at her latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 500m (30.54). Back to a handicap and will jump off 3m. Nice effort last start - must be included back to handicapping. SPOT THE LOONY (6) was unplaced at this track two starts ago then improved to score last time out off scratch in a handicap at this track over 500m (30.56). Breaks from the back. Talented handicapper who has 21 wins and 36 placings from 81 runs from the staggered start. Sure to be in the money. THAT SOUND (2) is a strong first-up performer returning from a 77-day layoff. Kicked off with a fourth in a this track A7 over 500m when last in work. Genuine handicapper who has seven wins and seven placings from 19 runs from the staggered starts. Must be included.
