Prize Money: $5,215

GREAT CHAT (1) has a terrific record this track and trip with two wins and one placing from three starts. Scored by 1.75 lengths last time (29.63) in a Grade 5 over 520m at this track. Appeals as a leading chance in this. GUDRID (2) was last seen getting around 520m at this track in a quick 29.74 for a half a length success. Has the ability and can measure up again. WOOLGOOLGA (8) won again and recorded an impressive time after leading them home to make it back to back wins, scoring by 3.5 lengths (29.66) at this track over 520m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Should be in this for a long way.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at his last couple, most recently over 520m at this track in a handy 29.63 beating Psycho Circus. In sparkling form and can win again.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (29.82) over 520m at this track. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Looks tested in this line-up.
