FAWN RUPEE (1) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was a Grade 5 winner three back (19.56) at Bulli over 340m. Better than latest and can atone here. TIGHT BOND (6) was in the minors two back (22.96) at this track but ran below best last time there, finishing 6th. Cannot be left out. AKII ROYALE (4) finished in the money two on end before breaking through for an overdue win last start (22.76) at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Rates a winning chance on best. RUSTY CORTEZ (8) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.23) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 5 length sixth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and five minors. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Missed the frame last start when a 1.75 lengths fourth (18.52) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Has ability but this tough and will need some luck to feature.
