OPAWA MARSH (6) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (18.53) at this track. Must come into calculations and is the one to beat despite a tricky box draw. HUNTER LOU (3) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (18.88) last time in a Class 5 H at this track. Has a good record here including 15 wins. Likely to be thereabouts. BIG TIME TACTICS (5) crossed over from out wide last start before finishing third (18.80) at this track in a Class 5 H over 318m. Leading chance. OPAWA ELLIOT (8) is a last-start placegetter at big odds who will have admirers.
