NICKO JACK (7) turned in a moderate effort last time when fifth at this track over 365m behind Where's Fernando (21.40) in a NG. One of the better chances. BORN LITTLE (1) is a talented dog who is a winner of six races but missed the frame last time when fourth at this track (20.96). Form here at the trip sound including six wins. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. NICKO QUEEN (4) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on her slick win the start prior, getting around this track over 365m in 20.75. Should be in this for a long way. CATASTROPHIZE (8) has strong claims after a top-three finish at this track and distance last time out.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 365m in 20.75. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when seventh over 365m at this track at NG level. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 520m at Dapto. Likely to find this too tough.

Latest effort finished 5th on May 26 over 365m at this track behind Where's Fernando beaten 14 lengths (21.40) in a NG. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 2.5 lengths second at this track but did record a swift 20.67 over the 365m journey. Can slot into the minors again.
