KOOKY (10) was in the money at Geelong when resuming two runs back then could only manage fourth at Pakenham over 1m two-and-a-half weeks ago. Has the pace to take a forward position. Tough to beat on best. Can open winning account. MEXICAN FIDDLER (2) is a 12-start maiden who finished fourth after being in contention on the turn at his most recent appearance over 7f at Pakenham. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. REBILLYOUS (3) did little and finished 4.5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 7f58yards at Kyneton last start after being in the firing line on the corner, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Echuca the run before. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ZE BEE NINE (6) was beaten 7 lengths into sixth over 7f at Pakenham at his latest appearance. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
