BAD BLOOD (1) was an impressive winner last time over 6f at Ballarat Synthetic. Drifted back on that occasion then stoked up impressively to score by 2. 75 lengths. Will prove tough to hold out again. CHICAGO BLUES (6) is back from a lay-off of five-and-a-half months and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 5f122yards at Kilmore. Ran seventh in a trial at Pakenham Synthetic over 5f recently. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. WICKED STORM (8) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 3 lengths, over 5½f at Bendigo. Will strip fitter and is capable of sharp improvement. Turned in a better run last time when fifth, beaten 1. 2 lengths, at Bendigo over 5f. Will appreciate the drop in grade. Don't underestimate.
