ARIA'S DREAM (2) is better than last start when fifth (17.54) in a Mix 1/2/3 at Dapto over 297m. Solid record here at the distance winning 13 races. Boasts a strong record from this draw with seven wins and two minor placings from 15 starts. Key runner on her best form. IMPRESS LUCKIE (1) was a last start winner scoring by 4.5 lengths at Richmond over 401m (23.26). Failed to fire only run here. Capable of going well again. WAR HAWK (7) is an honest type in the frame at 18 of 53 starts including 17 wins, the latest scoring (20.78) over 365m at this track. Solid record at the distance winning nine races. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. ORSON JIMMY (8) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Strong performance to post a big 4.5 lengths win at Richmond over 401m (23.26) beating Midnight Star in Mix 2/3 on October 24. In-form and measures right up. Hard to beat.

Was out of placings last time (17.54) at Dapto in a Mix 1/2/3, finishing fifth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Strong record off the draw with seven wins and two minors from 15 starts. Has ability and looks a key chance.

Returns from a ten weeks spell and hit the frame when last resuming, finishing third over 400m at Bulli. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 2.5 lengths in 20.70, beating Lobster Roll. Last start finished 7th on October 23 over 365m at this track behind War Hawk beaten 7 lengths (21.32) in a Mix 1/2/3. Well placed and among the chances here.
