OWN CLASS (6) hit the frame last time at Ascot Park but just a few starts ago ran slick time when scoring over 295m at this track in 17.19. Hot win three back and looks the one to beat here. LOVERS MEETING (2) broke a string of placings finishing in the money five on end before a last start seventh (23.56) at Ascot Park. Found the distance to far last start. Has ability and is one of the better chances. HOMEBUSH NEPO (3) pinged the lids and led throughout to score last start (17.38) at this track in Class 1 over 295m. One of the leading chances again despite rising in class. OPAWA STORY (7) picked up a cheque last time and is in the mix again.
