SOPHIE'S PAINTER (4) missed the placings two runs back then settled well back last start when 9 lengths away in ninth over 1609m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. DREWMAZING (8) turned in a fine effort to score by 1.3 lengths at this track and distance last start in a much improved run. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. BIND FAITH (6) showed early speed from an outside draw and held a forward position before fading to finish fourth, beaten 3 lengths, last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Will push forward and is among the chances. LOUDERMILK (2) produced a better run last start, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth over 1006m at this track. Well placed to turn things around.
