ABSCONDING (5) has a strong record this journey with two wins and a minor from four starts. In the money last time at Bulli (22.37) in a NG, finishing a 1.75 lengths second. Looks a key chance on best form. TORNADO ETHICS (4) has a strong record this track and trip with six wins and two placings from 14 starts. Recorded a 4.5 lengths win (22.28) in a NG last time at this track. Looks one of the chances. HARD STYLE GIRL (2) was a last-start winner from the rails at Bulli and distance (22.31) after being shuffled back early, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Must include in calculations. FEDERAL SENOR (1) was strongly fancied on the back of a win two starts back but finished second last time (29.72) at The Gardens. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten.

Won two starts back over 515m at The Gardens. Last start he finished 2nd in a Grade 4/5 on July 31 over 515m at The Gardens behind Done Dealing beaten 0.8 lengths (29.72). Draw likely to suit. Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this box. Must be respected.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 0.8 lengths at Bulli (22.31) beating Stand Up Tony in a Grade 4/5 on July 28. In form and is right in the mix again.

Finished in the minors last time in a NG at Bulli when a 1.75 lengths second but did run an excellent 22.37 for the 400m trip. Expected to push the clock again here.

Placed last time (22.59) at this track in a NG, finishing second and beaten 4.5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Missed the frame latest (23.42) when fourth over 400m at The Gardens in a NG. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and three places from seven starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
