BUTCHER (6) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (17.66) from Box 3 at this track. Has good early speed and can overcome the tricky draw. Can go on with it. CATCH MY SHADOW (5) goes very well at the course and distance with two wins and a placing from three starts. Below best last time at Grafton (20.54) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 6 length seventh. Looks one of the chances. ARCTIC BELL (1) turned spotting a big start finishing eighth (20.56) last time in a Grade 5 at Grafton. Leading chance. CHAMPAGNE TALKS (4) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Was out of placings last time (20.56) at Grafton in a Grade 5, finishing eighth and beaten 6 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Looks a key chance on best form.
