TARBHACH (3) turned in a moderate effort last time when fifth at Warragul over 460m behind Devil's Sympathy (26.24) in a Free For All. Rates on top in this line up. PAW ZHANA (5) produced an impressive win last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by a nose (25.80) at Warragul. Looks suited and has winning claims again. HARTLAND WILLOW (1) was below best last time finishing fourth at Sandown, but prior to that had been racing well including a Grade 4/5 win two back at Sandown. Can feature with the right run. NARINGAL LAD (2) has a solid strike rate from this box.

Good effort to score just four days ago over 460m at Warragul by a nose in a Grade 4/5. Has run blistering time here with a 29.84 PB at the distance. Hard to beat.
