STARRY RAYMAR (8) is in top form lately including a powerful win at this track in 21.73 two back then backing it up with a 28.66 victory at this track over 498m latest. In form and looks the one to beat again. GUS THE GREAT (2) has been in the money at the last couple here when racing on speed, last start finishing second beaten 0.8 lengths (28.72). Has a good record here including a win and six placings. Expecting another good run. HARA'S SUZUKI (1) was a brilliant winner two back but last start drifted back and wound up strongly to finish a 7 length second at this track (29.25). Hard to beat again. PICKIN' PIXIES (6) was in the money again last time and not beaten far when third (28.92) at this track in a Grade 5.

Hit the frame latest (28.77) when second at this track in a Grade 5. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from four starts. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
