IMA BOXA (4) is progressive and made it four wins on the trot when overcoming a back row draw to cruise home by close to 20m in the Metropolitan Regional Championships final at Penrith last start. Has only once been beaten in eight tries and he can push forward from this draw to add to the winning streak. OAKIE SMOKESHOW (2) has been a model of consistency and added to a series of top-two finishes when winning over further here last week. Owns a good strike rate at this shorter distance and draws well so could strike again. SOHO GUNSLINGER (7) enjoyed the drop in grade from the Riverina Championships when he raced parked from a similar draw to this before scoring by 2.3m last week. That took his strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent. SEASIDER (8) cops a wide draw but must be respected off his upset win in the Riverina Championships Final last start. DANCE WITH CARMER (9) has recorded a win and a second from this same barrier in his last two outings. Must respect.

IMA BOXA (4) is progressive and made it four wins on the trot when overcoming a back row draw to cruise home by close to 20m in the Metropolitan Regional Championships final at Penrith last start. Has only once been beaten in eight tries and he can push forward from this draw to add to the winning streak. OAKIE SMOKESHOW (2) has been a model of consistency and added to a series of top-two finishes when winning over further here last week. Owns a good strike rate at this shorter distance and draws well so could strike again.

Race comment
IMA BOXA (4) is progressive and made it four wins on the trot when overcoming a back row draw to cruise home by close to 20m in the Metropolitan Regional Championships final at Penrith last start. Has only once been beaten in eight tries and he can push forward from this draw to add to the winning streak. OAKIE SMOKESHOW (2) has been a model of consistency and added to a series of top-two finishes when winning over further here last week. Owns a good strike rate at this shorter distance and draws well so could strike again. SOHO GUNSLINGER (7) enjoyed the drop in grade from the Riverina Championships when he raced parked from a similar draw to this before scoring by 2.3m last week. That took his strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent. SEASIDER (8) cops a wide draw but must be respected off his upset win in the Riverina Championships Final last start. DANCE WITH CARMER (9) has recorded a win and a second from this same barrier in his last two outings. Must respect.

Race comment
IMA BOXA (4) is progressive and made it four wins on the trot when overcoming a back row draw to cruise home by close to 20m in the Metropolitan Regional Championships final at Penrith last start. Has only once been beaten in eight tries and he can push forward from this draw to add to the winning streak. OAKIE SMOKESHOW (2) has been a model of consistency and added to a series of top-two finishes when winning over further here last week. Owns a good strike rate at this shorter distance and draws well so could strike again. SOHO GUNSLINGER (7) enjoyed the drop in grade from the Riverina Championships when he raced parked from a similar draw to this before scoring by 2.3m last week. That took his strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent. SEASIDER (8) cops a wide draw but must be respected off his upset win in the Riverina Championships Final last start. DANCE WITH CARMER (9) has recorded a win and a second from this same barrier in his last two outings. Must respect.
