Stormy Sunset continues to improve with every run and fair third Mt Barker 1300m at third race start.  Good Girl Lucy solid effort when placed at 1800m last start. Close to a win. Reflective Image fair effort at 1800m two starts back, but next run was well back.


Race Two: Dark N Stormy resumed with an honest second 1100m Mt Barker. Placed two of four and suited here. Dantes Dream back from a long injury enforced out. Won recent 600m trial. Cheval Magic no luck with barrier draws last two starts. Before that good second 1200m Albany. Dambnig fair effort 1100m Mt barker last start. Expect improvement. King Before Dawn fair effort at debut here then outclassed Ascot and next outing. Competitive Street never far away and narrowly beaten at last two starts. Well overdue to break through. Royal Escapade very consistent but finding it hard to break maiden stataus.


Race Three: Capadan veteran who resumes after nearly three years off the scene. Ran in a Railway and Kingston Town Classic many many many years ago. Tidal Storm struggled for best form all year and hard to suggest on last effort. Week Bix won 1200m two starts back, then beaten well and truly on merits same trip. Always a chance this company. Wester Zed likely to improve on fading effort 1200m here at last start. Certain Gold good effort first up 1300m Mt Barker, and expect to be in this for a long way. Billyaintsilly placed Esperance at last start 1200m and place prospects look best here. Punk'd fair effort this company 1200m last outing. Expect similar here.


Race Four: Radio Pleasure has not started since December 26th when disappointing after previous form good.  Redford followed first up second with good win here 1200m. Up a class but racing well. Saramento, Miss Consistent with another second 1200m Mt Barker lastest start. Well drawn and gets chance again. Jackass faded badly when resuming here 1100m. Will strip fitter. Master Marlon followed good run Mungrup Sprint with disappoiting effort Ascot 1200m. Can do better. Stormyglow back in distance and after moderate effort Albany 1600m. Previous form good. Whinnen good effort first up Mt Barker 1200m in similar company. Son Of Thunder good effort here two starts back 1200m, pay to forget last run Mt Barker. Up in class here.


Race Five: Impact Rating caught the eye second up running on over 1300m. This trip will suit. Timely Reign in great form , and had easy run when just beaten 1800m here last start. Viscount cameron racing fourt up here and likely improver on close up 5th 1800m here last outing. All Class only beaten Long Head Ascot 1600m latest outing. Has won at 1800m at two tries. Sir Clase well below best form and well back 1800m here last start. Mctease up in class here but not the worst on third 1600m Albany last start.


Race Six: Spitfighter doing best work at finish Albany 1100m last start. Hard to catch on the right day. Trimconnection better suited here than fading sixth 1600m Albany last start. Previous form excellent. Rambler won Narrogin Maiden two starts back, last outing disappointing. Blazing Icon struggled last few, but looks better suited here. Alabameramer excellent effort when just beaten 1100m Albany first up. Need to reproduce that effort. Why So Blue, has been well below best form and need to take adavantage of good draw here. Montclar Miss easy Maiden winner, then sent back to trials after latest effort. Capable of bouncing back. Orient Star good efforts at two runs back in stronger company. Worth plenty of thought.

Nicely placed here, Aint No Lady followed Maiden win with good fourth Albany 1200m. Look Here Trousers hard to follow but did not have much luck last outing Mt Barker.  She's A saint had three runs back and should be ready to produce best form. Tangram well below best form, but capable of surprising back at this track.


Race Eight: Don't Tell Toby back in own class after two fair efforts open company. Won this trip three starts back. Dark Humour returned to form with good 1600m win here. Big rise in weight here. Royalistic pay to forget last run when wide all the way. Won this trip three starts back. Alsaah Warrior good effort racing second up when close fifth 1600m Albany.
