Irish import LEADERS LISTEN (1) improved sharply last start when second-up from a spell over the mile at Newcastle, charging home late after extracting from a pocket only to come up agonisingly short. Looks settled now and he is crying out for this extra trip. TAPA KICK (2) is yet to miss the placings in thirteen runs, the latest effort a dogged win in an 1800m Randwick Highway. Cherry-ripe after three runs back and is sure to be about the mark again. HURSTVILLE ZAGREB (6) met with strong support and got the job done easily on debut recently over 1500m at Goulburn. McDonald might dictate terms and despite the class rise he will be tough to run down. THINK WE'RE THERE (4) was stretched to 2200m at Scone last start and didn't run the trip. Worth another chance back to this distance with Rawiller going on. Last start Newcastle maiden winner JAYASHREE (8) should get better as the distances get longer so keep her in mind.
