EAGLES FLY ALONE (1) comes off an average run last start when fifth at Sandown over 515m behind Black In Style (30.63) in a Grade 5 NP. Has winning claims on his best figures. EASILY AMUSED (5) hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 3 length second over 300m at this track, clocking 16.83. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minor placings. Leading player again. MAJOR MIKE (8) produced a moderate effort last time when seventh at Ballarat over 390m behind Stojanovic (23.07) in a Grade 5. Was a winner prior to that. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Has ability and is one of the better chances. ZINZAN CHARLIE (4) is worth including.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 5th in a Grade 5 NP on May 12 over 515m at Sandown behind Black In Style beaten 9 lengths (30.63). Looks a strong winning hope.

Was out of the placings last time at this track but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching three minors in a row. Has a low draw but prefer each-way.

In the money last time at this track (16.83) in a Grade 5, finishing a 3 length second. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minors. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Backs up after winning by 1.5 lengths at Sale (24.92) beating My Cool Breeze in a T3 Grade 6 on July 2 four days ago. This is much harder assignment and she needs to find another gear.
