ESPUR (8) started at 11/4 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 1.75 lengths at this track over 5½f after being in the firing line on the turn. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. BANKROLLBENNY (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.2 lengths when sixth in a 6f contest at this track a month ago after being in contention on the corner. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. STAR WALKIN' (6) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 5½f at this track, beaten 9 lengths into fifth. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. NEED A GIGGLE (2) finished 2.5 lengths from the winner in seventh at his most recent appearance over 5f at Hobart after he gave away a big start. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment.
