Traralgon Race 3 - Sportsbet Final (1-4 Wins)

MATCHBOX CYCLONE (8) lines up chasing another win after getting around the 435m at Sale in a sharp 24.52 two back then following up with a 20.00 win at this track over 350m last time. In form and can measure up again. ABSOLUTE RUPEE (1) box seated before sticking on well to finish 3.5 lengths away in second (20.28) at this track in a Restricted WIN H over 350m. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from four attempts. Can feature again. PLATOON (2) has a terrific record this trip with two wins and one placing from three starts. In the money last time at this track (20.60) in a Restricted WIN H, finishing a 7 length third. Can hit the frame with the right run. CHARLIE'S ROSE (6) will need to run right up to last start to feature again.

Placed only run here over this trip. Latest effort finished 3rd in a Restricted WIN H on July 17 over 350m at this track behind Charlie's Rose beaten 7 lengths (20.60). Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.
