CLEO'S A CHANCE (6) was below best last time at The Gardens (23.37) in a Grade 5, finishing a 5 length sixth. Has already won two times from this draw. Looks a key chance on best form. HARD HEAD RED (3) is rarely out of the finish, recording 16 places from 31 starts. Has finished in the placings two on end now, the latest when second (22.84) at Maitland. Has a good record here at this journey. Leading chance. LADY BLIP (7) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at Moree over 421m (24.63). Was a winner at her only start from this draw. Must be included in calculations. LARSON'S ROCKET (4) is worth including.
