Backs up after winning by a nose at Geelong (22.56) beating Paw Otis in a Bottom Up - Grade 7 on February 3 six days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and he needs to find another gear.

Has been in the money the last two runs. Finished third at The Meadows in 35.44 last time but the start prior recorded a swift 31.06 over 545m finishing second at Ballarat. Has the ability and can find winning form.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior was just edged out when second (31.44) over 545m at Ballarat. Tough draw to overcome but is in the mix.

Looks close to another win after her success on January 12 at this track over 595m. Last start was third over 515m in 30.08, behind Perfect Symphony. More than capable and has to be included.
