FLYING MINTER (2) stalked lead from an outside box last start before finishing third (17.77) at this track in a Grade 5 over 300m. Has a strong record from box 2, including two wins. Likely to feature again. DIABLO MAC (3) produced a modest effort most recently when eighth at Casino over 300m behind Lady Rico (17.55) in a Grade 5. Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. In the mix. PORT BEFORE BED (7) impressed last time when posted a slick 17.76 win here in a new PB this course and distance. In form and must include in calculations. WITHOUT ME (8) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Missed the frame latest (17.84) when fourth over 300m at this track in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Fast starter. Last start finished 3rd over 300m at this track beaten 2 lengths (17.77) behind Little Whacker in a Grade 5 on January 31. Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this box. Sure to go well.
