Race Tip

EXTRA HEIGHTS (3) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6¼f at Canterbury, beaten 1. 75 lengths. Finds a more suitable contest and can take this out. STALLONE (2) went forward when resuming last start and proved too strong, getting home by a neck over 7f at Illawarra Grange. Likely improver with strong prospects. GALACTIC FORCE (6) lines up on the back of a 4. 5 lengths fourth over 6½f at Hawkesbury. Capable of playing a big role. NEED A MIRACLE (7) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by 1. 5 lengths over 6f at Scone. Has a win and six minor placings at this journey from nine starts and is not to be discounted.
