PAW MELODY (4) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 1.3 lengths at Warragul in a handy 23.26 beating Chloe's Fault. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from three attempts. Great chance again. HARTLAND WILLOW (2) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (23.28) at Geelong in a Maiden. Expected to do much better this time. ASTON CANNES (3) got a clear run and led until the final stages when third and beaten 2 lengths (23.09) at Geelong in a Bottom Up - Maiden over 400m. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Winning chance. FRANKLY SPEED (1) is likely to have admirers.

Has finished fourth at the last two runs, both at Bendigo, the latest when beaten 9 lengths behind Space King over 425m. Is a danger.

Latest effort finished 4th over 400m at Geelong beaten 5 lengths (23.28) behind Mr. Billy Lee in a Maiden on March 17. Should be right in the finish.

Well supported last time and gave a sight after a fast early split but could manage only the minor money, finishing a 2 length third (23.09) over 400m at Geelong. This appears within his reach.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in her races, Last start finished fourth over 400m at Geelong, beaten 13 lengths. Can't make much of a case this time.

Resumes from a 11 weeks spell and was in the minors at only other fresh up run, finishing second over 400m at Warragul. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Last start finished fifth on March 12 over 400m at Geelong behind Aston Barrister, beaten 9 lengths (23.31) in a Maiden. This looks too tough.
