HOT BANDIT (9) produced a reasonable effort when fifth last start over 6¼f at Canterbury, beaten 3 lengths after he made late ground. That followed a win at Goulburn the start prior. Ideally placed and is sure to make amends. PROPHET'S PRIDE (2) went forward last start over 6f at this track and held on well for second, beaten one length. In a suitable race and can figure in the finish. CHARLEMAGNE (1) proved too strong last start and scored by one length over 6f at this track. Has a decent record at this track with two wins and two minor placings from seven starts. Drawn out but does go back and work into his races. Will be picking them up late. Finds a nice race and can atone.
