GAMBELLA (5) struggled for best form latest, finishing 6th (30.31) in a Mix 3/4 at The Meadows. Has won here at this journey. Can atone. EVENTUATE (4) was out of the placings last time when eighth at Geelong (30.47) but scored four back at this track (29.73). Returns to favourable track. Was a winner at her only start from this draw. Worth another chance. WARM COCKLES (8) goes very well this trip starting 20 times for seven wins and seven minors. In the money last time at Geelong (30.47) in a Special conditions H, finishing a 5 length third. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. ZAMBORA BLISS (2) is a last-start placegetter when at the top of betting - in the mix again.

Hasn't threatened at her last couple but she does have good record over this track and distance. Has an exceptional 33.91 best time at this course and distance. Big chance.

Finished sixth (30.31) last start at The Meadows. Prior to that had recorded four minor placings in a row. Has to overcome a wide draw and looks safely held.
