FLYING DOORMAT (3) has a strong record this trip with 10 wins and six placings from 24 starts. Recorded a 2 length win (22.44) in a Grade 5 last time at Warrnambool. Looks a key chance on best form. BUNNI BALE (1) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame from Box 2 last run (22.49) at Shepparton. Likely to be in the finish again. SILENT WHISPER (2) produced a moderate effort last time when seventh at Geelong over 400m behind Strop (23.33) in a Grade 5 FIN. Was in the money the start prior. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from three attempts. Bold showing expected. PAW INGRID (8) can feature with the right run.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (22.99) at big odds over 400m at Geelong. Draws an inside box and capable of a better result.

Modest effort last time out when sixth over 300m at Healesville. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd on April 20 over 390m at this track behind Ascend Igloo beaten 3.5 lengths (22.44) in a Grade 5. Rates among the chances this time.
