Race preview
MONTGOMERY BURNS NZ (1) ran fourth last start at Launceston over 2200m, beaten 14 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Won't find this any harder and he can figure in the finish. MISTA EAGLE (8) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1680m at Launceston two-and-a-half weeks ago. MONEYS NO ISSUE (3) is the next elect off a last-start win by 3.5 metres at this track over 2090m. MY WAY NZ (6) drew on the back row last time but had put together a string of top-four finishes prior so is worth another chance.
