Race Tip
SPERANZOSO (3) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at Geelong with a win over 1m4f at Caulfield a month ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Finds a suitable assignment and can make it back-to-back wins. HAALAND (6) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with success as favourite over 1m3f at Bendigo two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on current form he is one of the chief contenders. ROARING ENGINE (9) is racing well, scoring in a at Werribee before finishing a nose from the winner in second last time over 1m4 1/2f at Moonee Valley. Can bounce back to winning form. ADONIS KICK (4) built on a nice third two starts back at Sandown-Lakeside with success as favourite over 1m3f at Sale a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by 1.75 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
