Was $41.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last start at Healesville but back over extra ground. Will be a difficult assignment.

Dictated the tempo to win last time at Horsham in 22.98s over 410m. Expecting to settle positively. Amongst the placegetters at every start this campaign. Strong competitor.

Jumped at $2.70 and weakened under pressure when 7th last time here. Is capable of a resurgence. Can win this.

Started at $9.00 and disappointing effort when 6th last time at Warragul. Highly unlikely it will trouble the judge.

Was $7.00 and ordinary when 7th last run at this track but has a good draw. Has a great burst of speed late. Watching with interest.
