OVERVIEW: CORBIE LADIR (2) is a 2yo having his second career start after turning in a nice effort on debut where, although he went down as a short favourite, he had to work hard to find the top in the early stages, only failing narrowly and beating the rest by a space. He will derive benefit from that outing and can go one better from this set-up. WHERES WOOD WOOD (9) was a good winner here two back when able to lead and run away from a moderate line-up. She backed that up with a solid run from a tricky draw last time. She’s in the mix again. BETTER DOO (1) is having its first run for the new stable and trialled okay recently for this. The draw is soft and looks to get the right map and is worth keeping safe. ALLHEARTNOHEIGHT (8) was a winner five back at Melton with Herbertson in the sulky, but since hasn’t recaptured that form. The soft draw gives her claims. KRAKEY (7) and DOT BALL (10) have minor claims at best, having to overcome tough draws over the short trip. BACK: CORBIE LADIR (2) – 2.5 units (win)
