EXPECT THE BEST (8) fought on well to finish second last start over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.1 lengths as favourite. Nicely placed to find winning form. TRIPLE UP (2) is a last-start winner over the shorter trip of 1207m at this track (Dirt), getting home by a nose. Gets some weight relief this time so another bold showing is expected. MAXIMUM PROMISE (3) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1710m at Fairgrounds, beaten 12 lengths. Has a solid second up record. Meets a stronger field but he is fitter and up to the task. DR STORM (4) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a third, beaten half a length, over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Deserves respect on best figures.
