SODA TURKEY (8) doesn't win out of turn. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (17.52) at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Top chance in this line up. AUSSIE SAVANNAH (1) was out of the placings last time but recorded an impressive Grade 5 win (22.57) at Ballarat three runs back. Has the ability and can find best this time. ZINZAN PLODDER (3) is going better than form suggests, missing the frame last time at this track but was placed three back followed by a close up fourth. Expected to do much better this time.
