ASTON GRANDEUR (1) was in the money again last time and not beaten far when second (22.06) at Warrnambool in a Grade 5. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. FAIRWAY FLYER (8) goes very well at this journey having never missed the frame including two wins and two placings. Placed last time (24.25) at Bendigo in a Special conditions H, finishing second and beaten 2 lengths. Among the main chances. WHODAT JEWEL (5) boasts a strong record this journey with five wins and six minors from 13 tries. Placed last time (22.08) at Warrnambool in a Grade 5, finishing second and beaten a head. Can feature in the finish. TREBLE BEERS (2) missed the frame but ran a fast seventh in 19.38 last time in a hot race. Worth including.
