Prize Money: $1,475

NOT BAD YOURSELF (7) missed the frame last time out when eighth at this track from Box five (23.56) but draws same box here as latest win. Form here at the trip sound including six wins. Comes out of a hot form race last start. Better than last start and worth following up. TEXAS DIVA (1) ran a sharp 18.26 when filling a minor placing over 312m at this track last start. Expecting another bold showing. ZERO CONTROL (4) is yet to miss the placings in an excellent record this track and trip which boasts five wins and three placings. Scored by 1.5 lengths last time (22.27) in a Grade 3/4 over 383m at this track. Can feature in the finish. SO NAIVE (5) has strong credentials over this journey.

Was in the placings last time but prior to that was an eye-catching winner after leading throughout, scoring by 1.75 lengths in a Grade 4 at this track. Rates on top and can find winning form again.

Good effort to win last start by one length over 312m at this track in a handy (18.49), beating Bagot Bullet. Will find this a bit tougher, this will test.

In great form with wins at his last two. Scored most recently over 383m at this track in Grade 3/4 class four days ago. Strongly fancied last time and lived right up to expectations. Stick with him.

Missed the frame last start when eighth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Well placed here and expected to bounce back.
