WANGARATTA GIRL (3) jumps from box 3 for the first time after placing latest at this track (25.73) in a Grade 5. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Form from her last run is proving strong. Must be included in calculations. PHOENIX TAN (2) settled down midfield and held her position to the line when finishing 5th (28.41) at Bendigo. Has a good record here at this journey.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (23.02) over 400m at Warragul. Thereabouts last couple and expected to run well.

Didn't make the placings last time at Ballarat (26.77) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 21 length seventh. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Others rate better this time.
