PAW OTIS (1) jumped well to win over the 400m at Geelong two runs back then prominent throughout when finishing third at this track last start. One of the contenders. OPALITE (5) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (29.92) from Box 3 at this track. Bold showing expected. NOT AGAIN (2) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 5.5 lengths second (30.38) in a Mix 6/7 at The Meadows. Winning chance. MISTER RICO (6) placed last time and cannot be ignored.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 10 length third (30.05) over 515m at this track. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (30.38) at The Meadows over 525m. Has the ability to take this out.

Chases the hat-trick after flying the lids with a sensational early split and went on to clock 30.00 when a one length winner over 525m at The Meadows. In top form and can make it three straight.

Made an impressive debut when rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early split and led throughout to score (24.80) over 435m at Sale. Shows good promise and should be in this for a long way.
