Another competitive heat but a chance is taken on BLACKLOOKS who has been shaping as if a win is near since joining this yard and he may be able to land another renewal of this race for owners the Melbourne 10. They also have last year's winner Florenico in the line up who has to be of interest again given that he can race from his reduced turf mark. Lappet if an interesting filly at the other end of the weights for a yard in form.
