PAPER SHREDDER (3) had been in super honest form hitting the frame three times on end before finishing fifth (23.44) at this track last time. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Has winning claims on his best figures. STYLISH ROBBO (4) was a (22.29) winner last time out at Gosford from Box 4. Boasts a strong record from this draw with five wins and two minor placings from 10 starts. In form and can go on with it. SMART COMET (1) looks close to another win after finishing third last time (23.30) at this track. Solid record here at this trip including 24 wins. Expecting another good run. LAZY PINEAPPLE (2) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Was out of placings last time (23.44) at this track in a Free For All, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minors. Looks a leading chance.

Good performance to post a big 5.5 lengths win at this track over 400m (23.01) beating Barramundi Lou in Grade 4/5 on October 10. Happy to risk this time.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 400m at this track. That followed a win two back in 22.93 beating Rattlin' Impact over 400m at this track. Tempted to look elsewhere.
