KIWI LISMORE (5) jumped from box 4 last time and ran away with an impressive win scoring by 6 lengths at Geelong in a handy 25.62. Has the squeeze box to overcome and will need the breaks early. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Will go close again if runs up to latest. YALE TURN (3) goes very well at the distance with two wins and a placing from six starts. Hit the frame latest (31.37) when third at The Meadows in a Restricted WIN. With even luck and a clean start should be around the money. STIDHAM KANSAS (1) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (30.71) from Box 4 at The Meadows over 525m. Cannot be underestimated. MIDWAY CENTRAL (2) has definite claims at his first try at this circuit.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but she has solid credentials over this track and distance. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 3rd over 460m at Geelong beaten 7 lengths (26.36) behind Pulling Drag in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win on September 29. Last run is a strong form reference. Worth following up.

Showing promise but missed the frame last start when seventh at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at Warrnambool three back. Looks a danger to the top few if returns to best form this time.

Backs up after winning by 2.5 lengths at Bendigo (24.26) beating Greysynd Warrior in a Maiden on October 16 five days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (25.82) over 450m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw and looks a each way chance only this field.
