PRINCESS LASS (2) was well supported last time but could only manage third (35.40), beaten 1.2 lengths. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to her credit. Deserves a win and gets her chance. HARVINGTON (3) has mixed form, but did hit the frame three back and was narrowly beaten next start before a fourth (30.40) at this track in a Grade 5 H latest. Has the ability and expected to do much better. QILIN BALE (6) was an impressive winner last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by 5.5 lengths (22.09) at Ballarat. Rates a leading chance again. NO CHARGE (4) cannot be underestimated.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (30.62) over 515m at this track. Gets the rails draw this time. Worth including.

Could only manage fifth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (30.26) over 515m at this track. Has a wide draw to navigate and will need everything to go his way.
