PAY THE REG (4) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing seventh (26.74) at this track. Has a good record at this journey. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. GUSTO (5) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (26.58) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Sandown. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. MIGHTY HERCULES (7) has found the minor placings here at last couple of runs, finishing third last time beaten 1.5 lengths (26.51). Expecting another good run. RUTH'S COMMANDER (2) is worth consideration.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished seventh in a Grade 4/5 on April 27 over 515m at Sandown behind Chatterbug, beaten 18 lengths (30.98). Will find this a little easier. Capable of taking this out.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th in a Grade 5 on April 23 over 460m at this track behind Brindle Chic beaten 2.5 lengths (26.58). Placed two back at Sandown. Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.
