EBONY DANCER (8) won again in another strong performance after leading them home to make it two in a row, scoring by 1.75 lengths (17.24) at this track over 297m. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings three times from six attempts. Looks the one to beat. TRIPS AND CARS (3) turned in a moderate run last time when seventh at Richmond over 320m behind Major Soko (19.08) in a Grade 5. Key player if finds best. RECEPTION (1) finds it hard to win. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing second (21.22) at Nowra. Expected to be in the finish again. MISS PICCOLO (2) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten second (19.08) in a Grade 4/5 at Temora last time out.
