EXTREME SPIRIT (1) ran well for third (of six) here over 1200m first up before an even effort at Rosehill last start when getting back in a slowly run race. He gets to 1410m here which should suit and if Carleen Hefel can be positive from the wide gate he can improve sharply. GANGITANO (3) worked home quite well on resumption at Caulfield when fifth, beaten 2 lengths. Strips fitter and can continue to progress. ROBRICK (8) ran well behind a subsequent Saturday winner on debut at Moe before an okay effort at Caulfield. He gets the blinkers and Damian Lane on from a good draw so expect he runs well. IMMINANCE (9) ran on well to score at Bendigo over 1100m second up and looks suited to the rise in trip now with each-way claims.
