FORTUNA STRIDE (10) hasn't performed to market expectations in her two outings off a spell but should be approaching peak fitness. Tricky draw but her form last campaign was good and this looks a suitable assignment. One more chance. LOUS PROMISE (1) hasn't featured in his two outings off a long spell they have been from tougher barriers. Building in fitness and should enjoy an economical run from this draw so expect big improvement. COULDNT CATCH HIM (7) was held up from this barrier last time so may be relying on luck but he was an easy Goulburn winner two back and owns a good record at this distance. ROCKET RALPH (4) steps up out of maiden grade but will be fitter for his resuming second from the back row and is lightly raced so has some upside.
