POSTERIZED (4) produced a strong effort at his latest appearance when he drew on the back row and raced parked but fought well to be edged out narrowly at Melton, beaten a nose. Led from a similar draw to win three back at Ballarat. Strong claims. BILLYS TIGER KHAN (8) impressed when fresh from a spell last start at Ballarat, leading and getting home by 1.1 metres. Draws on the back row this time but should enjoy a nice trail. Won over this distance the only time he raced here and has won when second-up before so could go on with it. LIBERTY STAR DUST (2) was good in defeat when third despite breaking here last start. That was his third placing from his last four outings, all from tougher barriers. Should have no excuses from this draw. ANGELS WATCHING (6) is up to a distance where she is a two-time winner. Draws wide but was good when runner-up here two back. INTERPRETATION (5) is back in grade and can measure up on her best form.
