NAUGHTY NORM (6) missed the frame last time at Warrnambool but was in the finish the start prior when sixth (22.31) and goes well this course. Looks suited here and big improvement expected. GAS LANTERN (8) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 5 lengths into third (22.46) at this track in a Free For All over 390m. Expected to feature again. LIGHTNING RANGE (4) has missed the frame at last two runs but could not have been more impressive a few back in his scintillating 21.88 win at Shepparton over 390m. Has the ability and can find winning form again. NOSEY PARKER (7) was below best last time at Shepparton (22.85) in a Mix 3/4, finishing a 14 length fourth. Has four wins already from this draw.

Missed the frame latest (22.96) when fifth over 400m at Warragul in a Grade 4/5. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Can feature in the finish.

Was a winner three back at Warrnambool then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when sixth (25.68) at Warrnambool. Looks a leading contender on best and expected to bounce back.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (23.36) over 410m at Horsham. Tends to run fairly well from the draw and in the mix on his best form.

Hit the frame latest (22.46) when third at this track in a Free For All. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and six places from 14 starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
