Snuck into the minor money last time when a 4.5 lengths third at this track but did record a fast 29.46 over the 515m trip. Expected to go close with a repeat of latest.

Missed the frame last start when a 14 length seventh (30.15) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at The Meadows. Rates well on best and expect a better run this time.

Looks close to another win after his success on November 4 at The Meadows over 525m. Last start was third over 515m in 29.17, behind Sunset Frazier. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (29.89) in a Special conditions H, finishing a 11 length sixth. Has one win and four placings from nine starts from the draw. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 715m at this track. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Dual acceptor. Won her last two including a narrow win last start racing on the pace over 600m at The Meadows by half a length in a Grade 5. Can bring up a hat-trick.
