WEDGE POND (2) finished just 0.9 lengths from the winner in second last start over 1308m at this track after racing on the pace. The engagement of Alexander Marti is a positive move. Likely improver with strong prospects. GONE NUTS (5) could only manage fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1308m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. GLAVA (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1308m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot return to winning ways. LINCHPIN STORM (4) finished 7 lengths behind the winner in fifth over 1308m at this track last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Can sneak into the finish.
