BANDIT BARB (1) has not raced since scoring (30.39) over 520m at Wentworth Park 11 weeks ago. Drawn the rails and rates a key runner. SINGLE BLUFF (7) showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 440m in 24.66, claiming a Grade 5 by 3 lengths. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Expected to feature again. SECONDS DOWN (2) continues to race in super honest form hitting the frame at all three career runs, winning two back before finishing second last time (19.09) over 330m at Temora. Looks well placed here and has the ability. Go well. ACTIVE DREAMS (8) recorded a 1.3 lengths win (18.77) in a Grade 5 last time at Dubbo. Already a winner from this draw.

Back from a spell of 11 weeks. Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 440m. Last start finished 4th on November 13 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Royal Bandit beaten 4.5 lengths (30.39) in a Grade 5. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 330m at Temora. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a 3 length win at this track over 440m in 24.66. Looks to have an edge on most of these.

Solid performance to win by 1.3 lengths at Dubbo over 318m (18.77) beating Heading South in Grade 5 on January 24. Among the chances and worth following up.
