Race 6 summary - STROMLO just got too far back last start and was given little hope from back there. Previous start was maiden winner and if finds that form can figure.

Race 8 summary - MEGAWATT deserves a win in this class. Drawn to get ideal run and will not get a better chance than this. THE AROD has been ordinary in last couple but previous form solid and he can bounce back.
