Good depth. SUGAR SCHNAPPS has her first full preparation with Team Hayes after coming across the Tasman. Went well on Soft6 last start. Jumped out well against Saturday metro performer Portinari in Flemington jump out. Stablemate NATIONAL CODE has a few tricks. Layed in at Bendigo two starts back and still found the line well well taken right back from draw. Cost self last start laying in heavily when about to wind up and still found the line, running best last 800 of the meeting. No surprise to see the near side bubble cheeker(pricker) applied to keep him straight. COLT FORTY FIVE been in great form over this distance and has now run quinella position in 4 of five starts. Meets winner 2kg better for last start and best form is on heavier tracks that he will get here. I STAND BY YOU resumes after tackling high value Future Stars series. No exposure on wet ground, but under a hold in Flemington jump out of Soft 7 with same rider on board so assume he was happy with it on the wet? ANIA ran home nicely here with 61kg last time and dives in weight with claim.
