Verdict

MEAN MACHINE (6) was sound in Listed company at Bunbury two back before a 1.8L defeat in this grade when an equal favourite at Pinjarra most recently. This looks to shape similarly and the form out of his last start has been great. At his peak fitness now and can get the job done. MYSTIC JANE (7) was only 0.7L off the winner most recently at 1400m, bumping into a good one there. She should land in a good spot from the barrier and Ramoly knows her well. Rise in trip shouldn't be an issue and she won't be far away. SAIL SESSION (10) is an improving type who was only 0.4L away last start behind a subsequent winner. He's likely to get back from the barrier, but he gets in at the bottom of the weights and he's expected to be right in the finish. PLAYING QUEST (8) is knocking on the door of another win and while this is tougher, he should be in the thick of the action. SPECIAL SORT (3) won't be far away with Pike hopping on board.

Useful type. Last start 2nd of 8 at this track Grad Hcp 60+ on February 22 over 1500m, long-neck behind Essentric Nature carrying 54kg at $8. The start before that came from midfield and won by 0.7 len at this track Mdn January 8 over 1800m defeating Barra Mundy with 56.5kg at $2.90. Hard to knock on recent form and can return to winning ways.

Useful gelding. Most recently made ground from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Bunbury Cl5 on February 27 over 1400m, head behind Close At Hand with 56kg at $3.70. The race before that 3rd in a small field at Bunbury Cl5 on February 13 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Elbow Lounge with 59kg at $1.75. An inside draw is a big advantage. Right on the cusp and should get his chance.

Sure to be thereabouts.
