Stake: $2,592

AVATAR KING (8) scored his maiden success two back then hit the frame last time when third and beaten 4.5 lengths at this track over 380m (22.39). Returns to the scene of his maiden win. Expected to feature in the finish again. BLACK RIFLE (5) has hit the frame here at the last two runs, most recently finishing third beaten 4 lengths (22.29). Expecting another good run. CANYA STELLA (4) has missed the placings at her last couple but was in the money three back when third (22.75) at this track in a Grade 6. Can find the frame this time. FINAL STORM (6) is worth a look over a shorter trip this time.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by half a length in 22.61, beating Dinosaur Bones. Last start finished 5th over 380m at this track beaten 8 lengths (22.75) behind Avatar King in a Maiden on May 2. Others read better.
