Prize Money: $2,925

HOOKED AND HAPPY (8) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (25.83) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Ready to return to form. HAPPY AND NUMB (1) copped a check in the run last time and never threatened when fifth (23.33) in a OPEN at Gawler. Has the ability and can atone with the right run. PADDY'S CHARIOT (4) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by a head at this track in a handy 25.55 beating Dad's Surprise. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Capable of going well again. PAW KATTIA (2) can run a bold race on best form.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 4 length fifth (29.44) over 510m at Sale. Well placed and among the chances here.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by a head at this track over 450m (25.55) beating Dad's Surprise in Rank Limit - Grade 5 on October 31. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Nearing another win after his success on October 8 at Warrnambool over 450m. Last start was fourth over 450m in 25.83, behind Ohtani Force. Well-performed from this draw. Key chance on best form.
