UNLIKELY HARP (1) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 480m behind Dower Patch (30.24) in an A6. Can discover winning form. CAVIES VAL (2) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 29.56 beating Moyne Maestro. Leading chance again. SEAVIEW HOFFA (3) has a strong winning strike-rate this journey here having won three of five starts. Missed the frame latest (30.78) when sixth over 480m at this track in an A6. Among the main chances. ROVERS RODGER (4) cannot be written off despite a miss here at his latest outing.

Failed to impress last start over 480m at this track when beaten 8 len (30.24) behind Dower Patch on May 11. Likely to find this a bit tough.

Got back early in the race last start when sixth over 480m at this track. Before that won by a neck at this track (29.99) beating Kilaheen Jet in an A6 on May 2. Would be better placed in something easier.

Yet to break through in two runs but has been thereabouts. Solid last time when on speed early before fading to finish fourth (30.35) at this track over 480m. Should be much improved on the experience.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 480m. No easier here and looks up against it.
