RIDING HIGH (6) is going well with three minor placings from four starts this prep. Produced another good effort last start when second over 1200m at Happy Valley. Zac Purton takes the ride, and he can go one better. ORIENTAL SURPRISE (10) progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1000m at Happy Valley after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Well placed, and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. CIRCUIT VICTORY (4) has been freshened up and can cross and lead this field. He could take some pegging back. Each way value. I P O BROS (1) drops down to class for the first time, and after having no luck last time out, he is poised to figure in the top 3 this time. RUN RUN TIMING (5) was given a short break after finishing well back over 1200m at Happy Valley. Kept ticking over since that run with a trial at Conghua. Rates highly and looks like a definite each-way hope.
