Ran a solid race on the speed before weakening to finish 3rd beaten by 3/4L last start at the track and was a debutant last start. Could be in the mix.

Jumped at $14.00 and underperformed when 9th last run around here but having second race start. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Too much luck needed to come into contention.

Amongst the placegetters when 3rd beaten by 5L last start at the track and having second career run. Has some claims.

Odds of $10.00 and lacklustre showing when 8th last run around here but was on debut last time. Might have to make up considerable ground. Racing over more ground. Will need to find a few more lengths.

Started at $9.00 and unsatisfactory performance when 7th last run at this venue but was a debutant last start. Might be ridden for luck. Would be more keen on the chance of others.

Odds of $12.00 and lost ground in the run home when 6th last run here but was on debut last time. Should be rolling forward early from the wide alley. Looking elsewhere.
