DAD'S SURPRISE (4) could manage only fourth at this track last time but impressed when posting an outstanding 23.89 over 425m at Bendigo three starts back. Expected to push the clock again here. VOLTAGE STRIKE (7) has been out of the placings at his last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (26.11) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has the ability and can find best this time. TICKET CONFETTI (1) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at Ballarat behind Paw Elodee (25.91) in a Grade 5. Worked home well on that occasion and should be strong late. Can feature again. GOOF BALL (6) is worth a look despite no experience at this circuit.

Was a winner three back at Bendigo then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fourth (26.27) at this track. Better than last run and looks set to run well.
