FILTHY HABITS (3) has been making solid progress through the grades this year and gave nothing else a chance when leading all the way to win a good race at Albany nearly a fortnight ago. He is ready to take the next step, and with 5kg less to carry, he can get the job done again. CURRIMUNDI (1) won the Pinjarra Cup by a head in his penultimate start and then may have needed his last start here in this grade over 1800m 15 days ago. He has less time between starts leading into this assignment, and he can bounce straight back into the money. IOWA (2) set the pace here last time out and was only run down inside the final furlong. He has won 3 of his 5 starts third up in the past, and is ready to win again at short notice. BLAZING AWAY (6) has yet to fire this year but does have a good record on this track over 2100m. He is down in weight and a form reversal would not be a big shock.

    Useful type. At the latest run favourite; scored a big 5 len win at Albany Albany Cup April 20 over 2100m on a soft track defeating What A Prince with 59.5kg at $2.80. The run before that 3rd of 15 at this track Rtg 72+ on March 29 over 1600m, long-neck behind Trio carrying 58kg at $5. Capable of making it two on the trot.

    Verdict
    Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming ran last in a small field at this track in the LR Old Comrade on April 5 over 1600m, 4 len behind Watch Me Rock carrying 59kg at $11. Second-up 4th of 8 at this track Diggers Cup on April 18 over 1800m, 2 len behind Watch Me Rock carrying 56.5kg at $9.50. Rates highly. Tough to beat if near his best.

    Useful gelding. Last start second last of 8 at this track Diggers Cup on April 18 over 1800m, 6 len behind Watch Me Rock with 61.5kg at $11. The start before that won by a neck at Pinjarra LR Pinjarra Cup March 23 over 2300m defeating Fear The Wind carrying 59kg at $11. Nicely placed and cannot be underestimated.

    Useful gelding. Most recently 9th of 13 at Albany Albany Cup on April 20 over 2100m, slow going 9 len behind Filthy Habits carrying 60kg at $18. Before that 3rd of 11 at Geraldton Geraldton Cup on April 6 over 2100m, 2.5 len behind Bambun Boy carrying 60kg at $8. Worth another chance.
