PAW RAELIA (1) flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 8 length third (27.64) over 485m at Horsham and making it two placings on end. Has a win and two minor placings from three starts from this draw. One of the contenders. MINER MICK (3) carved over from wide out and boxed on strongly to finish 2 lengths away in second (29.80) behind Sir Silvertree at Sandown. The form out of last race has been strong. Expected to feature again. PAW MONET (8) drawn the outside box and could get a clear run. Was below best last time when 8th and beaten 17 lengths at Sandown (30.53). Goes very well at course and distance boasting two wins. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Has ability and is one of the better chances. ILLUMINATOR (7) cannot be left out after placing in impressive time last start.

Comments

Has failed to fire at the last couple but she does have a good record at the track and trip, including two wins. Yet to win but has been in the placings two times from this draw. Worth thought.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 515m at Sandown clocking 29.80. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Was a winner three back at this track then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when eighth (30.67) at Sandown. Looks a danger to the top few if returns to best form this time.

Was among the placegetters latest at Bendigo when a 6 length second but did clock a hot 28.11 for the 500m trip. Expecting another bold showing.
