GOLD STRIPES (1) ran well two back when hitting the frame then out of the placings at Warrnambool latest but returns to a course where he has performed well. Meets a moderate line up and rates on top this time. LAKEVIEW MITCH (5) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (22.89) in a Grade 5 at Geelong.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in her races. The latest effort was a 11 length fifth over 390m at this track. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
