FEAR TO EXCEL (1) continues to race well but is struggling to break through, placing at her last four runs. Last start finished 2nd in a Grade 5 on April 30 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Billy Ray's Girl beaten 0.8 lengths (29.93). Has won two of five starts from this draw. Overdue and is among the main hopes. BLAZING PRINCE (4) was strongly supported last start but missed the frame when seventh (30.62), beaten 8 lengths. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Likely to play a prominent role. TARAWI BANJO (2) comes off a sharp 29.91 placing at Wentworth Park over 520m. In form and looks a leading player again. HURRY TUNCURRY (3) is very honest and looms as a strong top-three hope again.

Racing well without winning, recording four minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when second (29.93) over 520m at Wentworth Park. Overdue and expected to feature again.

Finished in the minors last time in a Grade 5 at Wentworth Park when a 3 length third but did run a slick 29.91 over the 520m journey. Hard to top with a repeat of that run.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last five starts. Last time out finished 2nd over 515m at this track beaten 8 lengths (29.97) behind Great Chat in a Grade 4/5 on May 5. Deserves a win and is expected to run well again.

Well supported here last start but couldn't repay punters, finishing finished last in a Grade 5 on May 9 over 515m at The Gardens behind Pitman Go Quick beaten 8 lengths (30.62). Placed two back at The Gardens. Fought on last time. Has the ability and right in the mix.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and tends to spot them a start in his races, Last start finished sixth over 720m at Wentworth Park, beaten 10 lengths. Likely to find this a bit tough.

Good effort to win last start by a nose over 515m at this track in a handy (29.74), beating Stereophonic. Winner last time and looks well placed again. Worth following up.
