CHOPPER SURE CAN (3) pinged the lids from out wide but run ended and faded out of it late when 6th at this track in Grade 5 company. Worth another chance. ROBELL THEA (1) produced a moderate effort last time when fifth at Casino over 300m behind Bokarm Rhonda (17.67) in a Grade 5. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Leading chance. GRAPHITE (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth (26.74) in a Grade 5 at this track. Comes through a solid form race last start. Cannot be left out. DELTA SANDS (7) cannot be underestimated.

Last start finished 5th over 300m at Casino beaten 8 lengths (17.67) behind Bokarm Rhonda in a Grade 5 on April 21. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish sixth (20.76) at this track over 350m. Capable of a strong show.

Didn't make the placings last time at Casino (17.59) in a Grade 5, finishing a 8 length sixth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Will need the right run.
