EW Savers
 

6/1 LORD ERIN & 8/1 HUGS DANCER look good savers outside the obvious top local hope BLACK TOM!

Perth Cup
 

Higgins Gold EW at 16/1 looks a good wager. Impressive in winning the Ray White Cup Trial (2800m) at Pinjarra recently by 4.5lens. On that day easily beat other Cup contenders Quintanella, Universal Warrior and Ca Cao.

Plastered
 

News to hand is that Plastered’s operation for a condition known as “lazy larynx” has been successful and he has returned to Perth. But NOT to Lindsey Smith’s Casuarina stables! As yet a new trainer has not been confirmed!!
