BENARCA BELL (2) scored two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 7 length 4th at this track (30.17). Can discover winning form. GRASS IS GREENER (1) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 4 lengths at Ballarat in a handy 31.50 beating Dark Miracle. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Can make it back-to-back wins. CALLISTA (3) was in the money last start at this track and distance - poses a threat again.

Strong performance to win by 4 lengths at Ballarat over 545m (31.50) beating Dark Miracle in T3 RSTW on October 19. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 3rd over 595m at this track beaten 0.8 lengths (34.76) behind Water Maker in a Mix 6/7 on October 19. Boxed on well last time to hit the frame. Rates highly again.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (35.46) over 595m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome but capable of a better result.

He hasn't been setting the track on fire and faces tougher opposition here. Not going well enough to figure in this.
