WATERMELON (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1700m at Ipswich, beaten 3 lengths into eighth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. RED MILE (3) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 0.8 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1800m at Gold Coast. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. WHISTLING SPIRIT (5) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten a neck into third over 1800m at Gold Coast after being in the firing line all the way. Has the speed to be prominent from the outset. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. KAREEM (4) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1540m at this track, beaten only a head. This looks a good race for him and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways.
