NEO DEVERE (7) finished in the money two back then was well fancied latest and led into the straight but ran over, finishing second (34.66) at this track in a Grade 4/5. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Leading chance again. PERFECTLY (8) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (26.20) at Warragul. Form here at this distance is sound. Bold showing expected. POINT BREAK (2) goes very well this course and distance starting 13 times for five wins and three minors. Hit the frame latest (26.27) when second at Warragul in a Grade 4/5. Looks well placed here and among the chances. RADAR O'REILLY (4) cannot be left out over a shorter journey.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 525m at The Meadows in a handy (30.58), beating Baby Beets. Will find this a bit tougher, in form but prepared to risk this time.

Quickly away at Shepparton two runs back then again settled forward and finished second at Warragul last start over 460m from this same draw. Has run blistering time here with a 29.28 PB at the distance. Must include if he recaptures that form.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 1.2 lengths at this track (29.91) beating Lindenow Buffy in a Grade 5 on July 27. Likely to find this too tough.

Strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but could manage only second (26.20) at Warragul over 460m. In form and can return to the winners' list.
