CHARM NOIR (15) finished midfield when resuming from a break last time out over 7f at Cranbourne. Backmarker who gets home hard. Will prove tough to beat. BOLSHIE (3) pushed forward from a wide draw last time and found a forward position then knocked up in the straight to finish ninth over 1m1 1/4f at Avoca. The winkers come off now. Rates strongly and expected to go close. LAVA DELTA (13) was out of the money when resuming but has since been on the money on two consecutive occasions, the latest when second over 7f at Cranbourne. Must be included in calculations. TASTE OF WINE (14) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in third over 7f124yards at Yarra Valley. Improver worth including.
