CARMELFROMCANEW (3) goes very well this course and distance starting 34 times for 14 wins and 11 minors. Placed last time (24.13) at this track in an A1, finishing second and beaten 1.5 lengths. Looks suited here and rates on top. YAHOO POPPY (4) was out of in the placings when fourth last time but three runs back clocked a superb 24.07 win over 400m at this track. Top win three back and rates a key player again. TIP TOP NITRO (5) was a last start winner (24.40) at this track who is building a strong winning record. Goes very well from this draw with seven wins and three minor placings from 14 starts. Should be in this for a long way. BRINDLE MOON (2) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.

Charged out of the boxes with a sizzling early sectional but swamped late when a close up fifth (24.46) at this track over 400m. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Sizzled early but found one better when runner up (24.13) at this track over 400m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Pay to follow.
