INDY GRANT (4) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, breaking through last time at Shepparton over 390m. Great chance again. HARTLAND BONNIE (6) is better than last start when seventh (22.85) from Box 7 at Shepparton over 390m. Has a strong record from box 6, including two wins. Worth another chance. WALTZING DIABLO (1) turned in a better effort at Warragul last start, finishing second behind Miss Jo (23.12) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Expected to be in the finish again. KEIJON BARNY (8) can find the frame without surprising.

Surprised two starts back at Healesville to win by a neck in 16.85, beating Hijack. Last start finished 8th in a Grade 4/5 on June 18 over 390m at Shepparton behind Doongalla Gem beaten 14 lengths (23.33). Others make more appeal.

Missed the frame last time when fourth (22.75) at this track. Prior to that had been racing well. Has a decent strike-rate from the draw but will need a little luck to feature.
