ASTON FLORIN (3) has a strong record this trip with 10 wins and five placings from 22 starts. Placed last time (22.78) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing third and beaten 5.5 lengths. Rates on top and should go close. SASSY LAD (2) turned in a moderate effort last time when fifth at this track over 400m behind Fernando Fun (23.17) in a Grade 5. Placed at his previous run. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Should be about the money. LITTLE WILDFIRE (1) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 3rd at this track over 400m. Can feature again. KAADADJAN (8) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.

Was out of placings last time (23.17) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 9 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minors. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Comments

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 5.5 lengths third (22.78) over 400m at this track. Comes through a solid form race. Expected to feature.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.94) in a Free For All, finishing a 9 length sixth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two places from four starts. Makes appeal on best.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 400m in 22.67. Followed that up with a minor placing over 400m at this track at Grade 5 a week ago. Should be around the mark.
