Campbell's Comments (300+Rank)

Prize Money: $1,740

KARUNA (2) finished third (24.15) two back at this track but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Has claims if she runs up to expectations. SALT SPECKLE (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (28.53) in a Grade 5 at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. DARE DEVIL (4) struggled in tougher grade last start after missing the jump at this track, but prior to that won by 1.5 lengths at this track (28.48) beating CORNHILL BOOMER in a Grade 5 on November 4. Should be about the money. SCOTT ALIFEROUS (8) can feature with the right run.

Was out of placings last time (24.21) at this track in a Grade 5 H, finishing sixth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Has two wins and two placings from seven starts from the draw. Key chance and should go close.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 1.5 lengths in 28.48, beating Cornhill Boomer. Last start finished last on November 7 over 500m at this track behind Paw Vortex beaten 16 lengths (29.11) in a Grade 4/5. Should show more than the latest offering. Has claims.

Finished second last time (28.58) over 500m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome. Has to do a bit more.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 525m at The Meadows. Hard to tip with any confidence.
