ASTON FRANCESCA (8) boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten half a length (22.76) behind Inga Amy at this track. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Top prospect. SWANKY CHIC (1) turned in a plain performance last time when fifth at Shepparton over 390m behind Moe Patty (23.24) in a Grade 5. Was in the money the start prior. Bold showing expected. YELLOW OCHRE (7) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 390m behind Cornhill Warrior (22.96) in a Grade 5. Can do much better this time. CALL IT FATE (4) is another with top-three prospects.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 400m at Geelong. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Hit the frame latest (22.76) when second at this track in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
