IN THE DARKNESS (6) started at 2/1 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 2.5 lengths at Strathalbyn over 6¾f after being in the firing line on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. LUCKY COMPASS (1) scored by 0.6 lengths in a at Mt Gambier then missed the frame latest when sixth at Geelong. Gets some weight relief this time. Rates a leading contender. WHISTLER GIRL (10) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fifth over 1m1/2f at Warrnambool after being in contention on the turn. Has the talent to return to the winners' list. TIMEONLEES (5) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7f at Terang, beaten 2.75 lengths. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.
