MAX EFFORT (2) rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (25.40) at this track over 450m. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Can go on with it. ATTICA BLUE (1) goes very well this trip starting seven times for four wins and two minors. Was out of placings last time (30.24) at Sandown in a Grade 5 H, finishing fifth and beaten 8 lengths. Can hit the frame with the right run. PAW URLA (8) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (24.08) at Bendigo over 425m. Cannot be left out. JACQUI MOSS (3) will have admirers after placing last time out.

Well supported here last start but failed to deliver, finishing finished 5th over 515m at Sandown beaten 8 lengths (30.24) behind Oh Biscuit in a Grade 5 H on October 12. Placed two back at Sandown. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Hit the frame latest (25.40) when second at this track in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and six places from 14 starts. Has ability and looks a key chance.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 2nd over 515m at Sandown beaten 2 lengths (29.86) behind Dime A Dozen in a Grade 5 on October 26. Close to the speed and boxed on well at her latest run. In the mix again.

Finished third last start (25.50) at big odds over 450m at Ballarat. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Solid top-three prospects.

Backs up after winning easily by 4.5 lengths at Geelong (25.34) beating Full Bore Donny in a Grade 5 on October 27 six days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and he needs to find another gear.

Had been racing in honest fashion before missing the frame last time out, finishing seventh (25.34) at Sale. Tends to run fairly well from the draw but appears tested on latest effort.

Comments

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (29.83) over 515m at Sandown. Tough draw to overcome but is worth plenty of thought.
