OPHIDIAN (3) flew around 350m at this track in 20.02 three back then has been in the money the last two since. Can measure up on top win three back. FIX IT FRED (8) goes very well this course and distance starting nine times for four wins and three minors. Missed the frame latest (20.50) when sixth over 350m at this track in a Grade 5. Makes strong appeal on best. FLASHING PAST (1) finds it hard to win. Finished third (20.55) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Has never missed the frame from three starts from this draw, including a win. Must be included in calculations. BING BONUS (2) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Could only manage eighth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (20.33) over 350m at this track. Has a low draw and is among the better hopes.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (20.35) over 350m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome but can measure up.
