Race preview
Tough finish. COMPRESSING (1) ran a good race last start at Geelong over 1700m, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth in a stronger race than this. 2000m should suit now fourth up and his best form sees him well placed. MOZZONI (11) is racing consistently without winning, not beaten all that far at Seymour last time in a stronger affair. Gets a good map here and can figure prominently. LIGHTNING FLASH (2) is coming off a narrow win at Wodonga, making it two from her past three. Turns around quickly and can win again. IDEELISTIC (15) is back in grade for this and draws well to sit on speed, each way chance. IDLING BEHIND (8) was sound last time at Mildura and should get a nice run.
