BALLISTIC BLAZE (5) recorded her 5th career win last time out (24.31) at Sale and drawn box 5 for the first time here. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Ideally placed to take this out. LARA MOON (2) recorded a win over the 390m at Ballarat in a decent 22.24 last start. Expecting another bold showing. SHIMA LITE (8) goes very well this course and distance starting eight times for three wins and three minors. Comes off a (16.76) win last time, scoring by 2 lengths in a Grade 5 over 300m at this track. Can feature in the finish. BUFFALO COWBOY (1) deserves plenty of thought over this journey.

Didn't make the placings last time at Warragul (22.85) in a Mix 3/4, finishing a 6 length fifth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from six starts. Can hit the frame with the right run.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by half a length at Ballarat (22.24) beating Miss Koblenz in a Grade 5 on February 4. Was strong in the market and scored a soft win most recently. Stay with her.

Eye-catching performance leading throughout to score by 5 lengths in a Restricted WIN last start at Sale, recording a flying 24.31 over the 435m journey. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest.

Was out of placings last time (28.68) at Bendigo in a Grade 5, finishing eighth and beaten 6 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and three places from nine starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
