MICRO (6) finished 11th at this track and distance at his last appearance six months ago. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with four minor placings. Comes here with definite claims. RUBY JULY (1) started at 17/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 2 lengths at Casino over 5f. Finds a more suitable contest and can make amends. FIRE KING (4) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at Doomben, beaten 7 lengths. Second up record is sound. Won't find this as tough so he can make amends. OFFICE JIM (2) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 5f190yards at Burrandowan after being in the firing line on the turn. This is a nice drop in grade so he will be hard to beat.
