WORDS OF WISDOM (2) boasts a strong record this journey with eight wins and nine minors from 23 tries. Recorded a 2.25 lengths win (20.17) in a Grade 4/5 last time at this track. Rates a leading player. WAGTAIL WHISPER (6) in the money last time at this track (19.97) in a Free For All, finishing a 2.5 lengths second. Suited here and expected to run well. BUDDY BONUS (1) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (20.26) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Key player on best and worth another try. FIX IT FRED (7) will be hard to beat with a drop in journey.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (20.26) in a Grade 4, finishing a 2.75 lengths fourth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and three minors. Looks a key chance on best form.

Flew the lids with a strong early split and led throughout to score an impressive win by 2.25 lengths over 350m at this track (20.17). Has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow fifth (17.64) over 300m at Casino. Tempted to look elsewhere.

Good effort to win last start by 4.5 lengths over 350m at this track in a handy (20.04), beating Soul Of Fire. Will find this a bit tougher, happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Backs up after winning by 2.5 lengths at Q Straight (16.54) beating Tommy Knuckles in a Grade 5 on August 24 four days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and she needs to find another gear.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (19.97) at this track over 350m. Unbeaten in three starts from this draw. Key runner.

Comments

Found the going tougher last start when third over 350m at this track. That followed a win two back in 20.32 beating Rhythm And Blues over 350m at this track. Hard to tip with any confidence.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
