HARA HACHI BU (5) goes very well at the course and distance with two wins and a placing from four starts. Comes off a (21.91) win last time, scoring by 3 lengths in a Grade 4/5 over 390m at Warrnambool. Looks suited here and rates on top. PAW CLARISSA (1) hasn't been far away, finishing in the money twice in a row including last time in a Free For All at Geelong over 400m. Can turn it around this time. ASTON WARRIOR (4) was a last start winner this course and distance taking a Grade 4/5 in 22.02 in the best time on the card and clocking a personal best as well. This tougher but expected to be in the finish. GAS LANTERN (7) looks an each-way chance.

Finished in the minors last time in a Free For All at Geelong when a 1.75 lengths third but did run a fast 22.57 over the 400m trip. Looks the one to beat with a repeat of that effort.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 390m at Warrnambool. Others preferred.

Was out of placings last time (24.55) at Bendigo in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths. Has performed well off the draw with a win and five places from 11 starts. Suited here and expected to run well.
