Prize Money: $3,360

PAW XENA (2) turned in a modest effort most recently when sixth at Sale over 435m behind Daddy Cool (24.68) in a Free For All. Was a winner prior to that. Should bounce back. PAW PALMER (8) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with three wins and a placing from eight tries. In the money last time at Horsham (23.79) in a Mix 3/4, finishing a 3.5 lengths second. Looks suited here and can measure up. PAW ESTRELLA (1) is looking to continue her winning ways off a dazzling 21.82 success at Shepparton. Top win latest and rates a key player again. DOONGALLA AL (3) scored by 2.5 lengths last time (22.30) in a Grade 5 over 390m at Warrnambool. Has already won two times from this draw.
