RIORDAN LOMAR (2) was a lightning 24.88 winner of a Grade 5 at Shepparton over 450m last start. Can measure up again if runs up to latest time. TRAJECTORY (1) stalked the lead from a low draw then burst clear to score (25.73) at Shepparton in a Grade 5 over 450m. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Significant danger. FLAMING SMOOTH (8) boasts a strong record this journey here with two wins and three minors from five tries. Was out of the placings last time (26.00) at Shepparton in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 16 lengths. Among the main chances. DONKEY FLY (4) is a last start winner from this box and is in the right race to perform well.

Far too good last start to win by 8 lengths at Shepparton over 450m (25.73) beating Cindy Cabang in Grade 5 on November 13. Looks well placed and can measure up again.
