MAKE ME KING (2) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (29.85) at this track behind Urana Xavier in a Mix 6/7. Has the pace to be prominent. Can go on with it. BLACK BUSINESS (3) finished in the minors last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 525m at The Meadows, taking a Maiden H in a solid 30.08. Has the ability and looks a key chance. VALENZUELA (6) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (30.57) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. OREGON JANET (1) must be included in calculations.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (30.34) over 525m at The Meadows. In form and can return to the winners' list.

Good effort last time when third (25.66) over 450m at Shepparton. Squeeze draw to overcome. Will need plenty of luck.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (30.44) over 515m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw but is in the mix.

Finished fifth (31.12) last start at The Meadows. Prior to that had recorded four minor placings in a row. Boxed out wide and will need the right run to feature.

On debut last start won by 1.5 lengths at Geelong (23.02) beating Paw Verity in a Maiden on January 10. Will find this tougher so others are preferred.
