DOONGALLA DON (6) clocked a speedy 27.07 finishing second in a Grade 4/5 at this track last start. In form and looks the one to beat. PAW CARVER (4) missed the frame but ran a decent fourth at Sandown over 515m in 29.54. Should be in this for a long way. NIGEL DEVERE (2) is a handy type who notched his 14th career success when too good (34.53) from Box 8 at The Meadows. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Has hit winning form and can go on with it. PAW CORNELIUS (8) placed last time and is worth some thought.

Missed the frame latest (30.28) when eighth over 515m at Sandown in a Grade 5. Has performed well off the draw with a win and five places from eight starts. Looks a place chance at best.

Comments

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 fourth (29.54) at Sandown over 515m. Leading contender.

Comments

Hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior was an eye-catching winner after leading throughout, scoring by 3 lengths in a Grade 4/5 at Bendigo and clocking a hot 28.11 for the 500m trip. Bold showing expected on best.
