LONGER ROUTE (1) turned in a much better effort last start when beaten only 0. 6 lengths into third at this track over 1m. Well placed and is a major contender. MELLIFLUENT (2) finished 4 lengths away in eighth last time out over 1m at this track a week ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Should be poised just off the lead. Will prove tough to beat. MORTHAN EFFICIENT (4) returned from a lay-off a week-and-a-half ago when he was beaten 3. 5 lengths into seventh over 7f152yards at Geelong. Finds a tougher race but a better run is on the cards. THERMODYNAMIC (5) finished 3 lengths adrift in sixth last time over 1m at this track in a disappointing performance. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
