FIDDLES (3) was below best at his last start when 6th at this track following a second place finish (19.33) there two back. Solid record here at the distance winning 20 races. Can bounce back. FIELD OF ANGELS (1) has missed the frame at her last two but did run well three back when second (22.98) in a Grade 5 at Warragul. Can find the frame this time. ZIPPING CHOI (5) was favourite last start and led all the way, scoring by a neck (25.63) at Ballarat in a Grade 5 over 450m. The form out of her last race has been franked. Should feature again. PREPARATION (2) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Didn't make the placings last time at Warragul (23.48) in a Grade 5, finishing a 7 length fourth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and four places from seven starts. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (19.46) over 350m at this track. Has a low draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Has finished sixth at his last couple of starts, most recently at this track over 350m. Can make amends. Worth including.

Solid performance to win by a neck at Ballarat over 450m (25.63) beating Go My Swifty in Grade 5 on October 26. Comes through a good form race. Looks a top chance.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Traralgon over 425m in 24.18. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 400m at Warragul at Grade 5 level. Likely to find this a bit tough.
