Prize Money: $856

HOPES CANDY (2) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (41.89) at this track behind Mongys Wild in a OR. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Key chance in this line up. AVIENDHA (3) has been in the money at five of 13 starts, winning two back before another minor placings latest when third (30.48) over 500m at this track. Goes well from this trap. Looks well placed here and has the ability. Go well. IVY HILL JAKE (6) jumped from this trap last time and also the same course and distance when a 1.3 lengths second (29.98) in an A4. Key chance on best form. STORMY BLUEY (5) missed the frame two runs back then won at his latest appearance by 5 lengths at this track over 500m (30.13). Tackles tougher grade here but in form and looks a contender again.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 695m at this track. Heading the right way looks well placed to take this out.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a head third (30.48) over 500m at this track last time. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.
