OVERVIEW: MIKI LOCH (10) joins the in-form Lisa Pitt stable and shows plenty of promise and was a big winner at Albury last start. Looks well placed again and should prove hard to hold out. MAD PUNTA (9) local pacer that gets a nice trailing draw and was a winner three starts ago and is amongst the chances. Both CITY ROCKSTAR (6) and MCWIZARD (4) have front row draws to be prominent and should be in this for a long way and must be respected. OLLIES MEDAL (12) has ability but disappointed last start and should be running on late. LOCHIEL LAD (8) and RANDOM MAHONEY (11) have awkward draws but have talent and just need suitable runs to have claims.

TUPELO BEACH (7) draws wide but is better than his figure form reads and has claims in this. CHEYS ANGEL (10) resumes here and was racing well in Tasmania prior to the break and can run well fresh.
