KENZIES COMET (2) has been in the money at her last two runs, most recently when second (17.76) in a Grade 5 over 300m at Taree Super Track. Can turn form around here. LARRIKIN PIONEER (3) scored two back when on speed but last start drifted back and could manage only a 5.5 lengths 4th at this track (23.58). One of the main contenders. TUMBY BAY (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (23.80) in a Grade 5 at Richmond. Can measure up this time.

Has hit the frame the last couple. Finished second at Taree Super Track latest but prior to that clocked a slick 19.39 over 336m finishing second at Muswellbrook. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a sixth over 400m at this track. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Has finished fourth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 4.5 lengths behind Tiny Tayla over 400m. Other runners look much more appealing.
