OVERVIEW: DANCE FIGHTER (7) was a dominant winner at Maryborough last start when leading. It was a slowly run race, but she let down nicely and got the job done. She has been racing well and comes into this with winning confidence. This assignment will be tougher from the barrier. OLIVER SMUDGE (3) was eye-catching when returning with a win last start after three years on the sidelines. He galloped early, caught the field, made his move around them and was too good when letting down late. He will improve again with fitness, but his manners remain a big risk. SHINELIKETHESUN (5) is the best swooper in this field on the clock. If she is close enough, she is good enough, but she comes with some risk after galloping at her last four starts. ELARIA (1) is having her third career start. She finished third on debut at Maryborough, doing everything right and running safely to the line. She galloped last start, although it appeared she may have suffered some interference that caused her to break stride. She recovered and ran on reasonably well. She should produce an improved performance here with added fitness.
