CAN'T TURN LEFT (2) was quickly out of the tricky draw with a fast early sectional and clocked 17.14 with a 1.5 lengths win at this track over 300m. Expected to be right there at the finish again. JAZZ BAND (3) carved over from wide out and boxed on strongly to finish half a length away in second (17.24) behind Pink Moscato at this track. Bold showing expected. ALWAYS SPEEDY (4) is better than last start when sixth (23.42) in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win at Shepparton over 390m. Has ability and can atone. ASTON MERRICK (1) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd on July 24 over 300m at this track behind Jazz Band beaten 0.8 lengths (17.13) in a T3 RSTW. In the minors two starts back. Winning chance on best form.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by 1.3 lengths at Traralgon (20.63) beating Aston Bentley in a T3 RSTW on June 22. Not far from winner last time but has the job ahead here.
