VIRTUE'S REWARD (4) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 2.25 lengths away in second over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. OUR LAST CHANCE (7) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1207m at this track, beaten only 1.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. REDNECKERTHANYOU (2) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when beaten 1.75 lengths. Distance specialist with eight wins and nine minor placings from 25 runs and has to be included. KOBE'S CAUSE (3) was beaten 9 lengths into fourth in a 1673m contest at this track two weeks ago. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
