Stake: $2,849

SHIRLEY'S ETHICS (5) Left nothing to chance when winning last start at Bulli. Serious contender. KILCOY TIGER (7) Competitive effort when 3rd last time at Richmond Straight. Should muster plenty of early speed. Racing consistently since returning from a break. Winning hope. DESPICABLE LEO (8) Tidy run when 2nd last run at Richmond Straight and has a positive draw. Very competitive this campaign. Among better hopes. MONEY PIT (1) Well beaten when 8th last run at Taree but back to a rise in trip. Will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Can win this.

At $16.00 below par performance when 8th last run at Taree but has drawn to do little work. Back over extra ground. Win will not surprise.

At $51.00 clearly outclassed when 7th last start at this track. Looks highly doubtful.
