SPONGE BATH (3) went forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1710m at Hawthorne Turf (Turf). Nicely placed to feature in the finish. DUNDIE (1) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Form at this distance is strong with four wins from eight starts and is a key runner. COOL MEMORY (7) got a long way back when 16 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1207m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before. Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. SANTINO'S FANTASY (2) did a great job to score by half a length over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.
