ADIRA RIVER (10) was in the money two starts back at Cranbourne but couldn't back it up last time when 14th, beaten 22 lengths, at Flemington over 1m4 1/2f after being prominent at the corner. Finds the right race this time and can find winning form. EPOCH (2) finished fourth two runs back at Werribee then improved last time out to score by one length after being in contention on the corner over 1m3f at Donald. The engagement of Dean Yendall is noteworthy. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. UP AND UNDER (6) finished 2. 75 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1m at Cranbourne a week ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Will give backers a great sight. DARWINIAN (3) registered his first win last start over 1m1f at Casterton, getting home by half a length. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Harder this time but still one to consider.
