NUMBAT (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1300m at this track, finishing sixth. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HORA DO TIGER (6) is a six-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 4 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1000m at this track. Plenty of scope for improvement and is a great chance to break through. ELTON JOHN (3) was safely held when fourth last time out over 1000m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. OVERBITE (7) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1000m at this track, beaten by less than a length. Each way claims again.
