Verdict

RACING PAULA (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fourth in a higher-graded race at this circuit and distance. Placed twice in a row in similar company to this prior. Big chance. MISTER CHEESE (8) had a tough draw last start so that result can be overlooked. Won twice in a row over this distance prior, one of them at this venue. Draws on the back row but with even luck he is good enough to put himself back in the winners' stall. CARRAMAR OLAM (4) is another coming back in grade and owns decent statistics at both the venue and the distance. The ace draw can spark improvement from IMXTRASPECIAL (1).
