FOX MAN (5) has recorded four minor placings from five runs this campaign. Was in the firing line all the way and finished 2 lengths from the winner in second at the latest outing over 5f at Ballarat. Must be included on the strength of that form. ASMITA (10) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of five months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 6f at Mornington. Commenced last prep with a minor placing at Yarra Valley over 5f. Should present well following a recent trial win. Nicely placed and expected to go well. THE KILL CLUB (9) is a maiden galloper who resumes after finishing in the money over 4½f at Mt Gambier six-and-a-half months ago. Sharpened for this with a recent trial win. Shapes as one to consider. INFER (2) comes here off a break of five months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 5f at Ballarat Synthetic. Makes plenty of appeal.
