PAW VARNA (5) had the drop on the lead from the rails draw last start but could only manage third, beaten 1.75 lengths (23.05) at Geelong in a T3 Grade 7 over 400m. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Top chance in this line up. PAW LARA (2) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (22.73) at Shepparton. Better than last start and can bounce back. ACE CHASER (1) finished second (24.26) two back at Bendigo but out of the placings last time when 6th at Shepparton. Goes very well here at the trip finding the frame in each of four starts. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Key player if finds best. UNIVERSE (8) can fill a top-three spot.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (24.26) at big odds over 425m at Bendigo. Nicely drawn on the inside but will need to find best.
