Race Tip

PORT LOUIS (1) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 6f at Mt Gambier, finishing second and beaten 0. 9 lengths when he worked home well. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. MANCHEGO (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4. 5 lengths when sixth over 1m1 3/4f at Great Western two weeks ago after being prominent at the turn. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. SOMAURUM (12) was expected to do more last start when out of the placings over 7f at Penola, beaten 9 lengths. Nicely placed to bounce back. TOMANADO (11) started this campaign with a win then couldn't follow that up last time out when fifth over 5f at Balnarring, beaten 5 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
