Verdict

NOTABADBUY (3) should be ready to peak third up. He stuck on well at Sandown Lakeside last time out when beaten a neck and should be fitter again. He'll roll forward with Ben Melham in the saddle and should prove hard to get past. EL JAMES (4) is the big watch. He's a progressive type who resumed in the Warracknabeal Cup, backed into $1.35, beaten narrowly into third. A stronger test of stamina will really suit here and he's a big danger. FLOSSING (1) was solid fresh at Bendigo and can improve with a good second-up record. BROOKLYN BOSS (8) is in the mix off a last start win at Ballarat.

Second run back. First-up after five months 3rd in a small field at Warracknabeal W'beal Cup on April 19 over 1600m, 0.7 len behind Angry Skies with 54kg at $1.35. Previously second-up favourite; came from midfield and won by 1.0 len at this track Mdn-Sw October 31 over 1700m defeating Morthan Efficient with 59.5kg at $1.80. Has a solid strike rate and is a leading player again.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up second last in a small field at Ballarat Bm70 on April 2 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Musgrave with 59.5kg at $7.50. Second run from a spell gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 9 at Sandown-Lakeside Bm70 on April 21 over 1600m, neck behind Liberami carrying 61kg at $19. Profiles nicely. Sure to prove hard to beat.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose at Ballarat Bm64 April 27 over 1600m on a rain affected track defeating Professor Pickles carrying 59.5kg at $8.50. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 11 at Sale Bm58 on March 30 over 1400m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Midnight Glow carrying 60.5kg at $4.60. Can measure up again.

At the latest run sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 10 at Sandown-Lakeside Bm64 on April 9 over 2400m, 6 len behind Fernao carrying 61.5kg at $21. Before that got back early 9th of 15 at Sandown-Hillside Bm70 on March 19 over 1800m, 3 len behind Khor with 58.5kg at $21. Unreliable and needs to lift.

Form hard to fault. Most recently rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 8 at Terang Bm64 on April 13 over 1600m, 1.3 len behind Mister Businessman with 61kg at $5. The race before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.0 len at this track Bm58 March 28 over 1700m on a rain affected track defeating Flying Celica with 62kg at $2.15. Not far away last start. Shapes as a top three prospect.

Second-up. Comes off a 37-day let-up. First-up after two months sat behind the speed prior to fading 9th of 14 at Ballarat Bm64 on March 25 over 2000m, 3 len behind Cable Dancer carrying 62.5kg at $21. Previously second-up 5th of 10 at Moonee Valley Bm64 on November 22 over 2040m, 1.5 len behind Almonti carrying 60.5kg at $4.50. Others make more appeal especially from his wide barrier.

Second run back. First-up after five months won by 0.5 len at this track Bm64 March 28 over 1300m in soft going defeating Superset with 60.5kg at $13. Previously second-up made ground from midfield; 2nd of 11 at Casterton 0 - 58 on August 11 over 1800m, slow going 3.5 len behind Hoodys Horse carrying 69.5kg at $5. Further improvement to come and is definitely worth including.
