Race Tip
NAKOA (8) missed the frame on debut then improved last time when 1.3 lengths away in second over 7f at Pakenham. Top prospects. INFRINGEMENT (3) returned last time with a solid second at Stawell over 6½f after being in contention on the bend. This is an easier race so he is a key runner. KHANT BEE (5) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1m at Stawell when second, beaten 2.5 lengths. Likely improver so he should be in the finish. USK VALLEY (10) is a maiden with two minor placings to her name. Could not improve on that record when resuming last start, winding up in fifth over 7f at Pakenham. Has plenty of upside. Should feature in the finish.
