SPRINGER'S BOY (4) boasts a consistent overall record including 12 wins from 50 starts, the latest hitting the minor money when second (25.39) over 450m at Shepparton. Has an excellent record off this draw. Has the ability and looks a key chance this line-up. PAW ELODEE (8) made light work of the tricky draw with a fast early sectional but gathered in and had to settle for the minors, finishing second (25.99) at Geelong over 460m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to her credit. Can feature again. PAW PALMER (2) showed strong early pace and stuck on well despite finishing out of the placings when fifth over 525m The Meadows in 30.45. Cannot be taken lightly. MORAINE KOBY (1) saluted at big odds last time, don't underestimate.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 450m in 25.69 last start, beating Paw Isla. Can measure up again with the right run.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Horsham over 410m. Last start finished 5th on August 8 over 525m at The Meadows behind Tarbhach beaten 3 lengths (30.45) in a Grade 5. Has the ability to take this out.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (25.84) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 5.5 lengths fourth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and three places from seven starts. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Finished in the minors last time in a Grade 5 at Shepparton when a 1.75 lengths second but did run a fast 25.39 over the 450m trip. Has the ability and looks hard to top.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 390m in 22.78. Followed that up with a minor placing over 425m at Bendigo at Grade 5 six days ago. Would be better placed in something easier.

Comments

Placed last time (25.99) at Geelong in a Grade 4/5, finishing second and beaten 2.75 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Key chance and should go close.
