BANG A RANG (2) was safely held when fourth last time out over 1207m at CANTERBURY PARK, beaten 7 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Likely improver with strong prospects. PAT'S PADDOCK PICK (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1006m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Won't find this as tough so he is a leading player. DR PERRY (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1006m at this track, beaten 0.7 lengths into fourth. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. HOT LEGS ROMOLO (7) sat on the pace last start until tiring to finish fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 1609m at this circuit. Can do much better.
