Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 2.75 lengths third over 390m this track in 22.51. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 390m at this track. Thereabouts last time others preferred this line-up.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a seventh over 450m at this track. Looks tested in this company.

Yet to break through in eight starts, the latest result a seventh (26.36) over 450m at Shepparton. Top chance to get off the mark.
