Was $12.00 and faded to finish 7th last run at this venue but was on debut last time. Should race on the speed. Has drawn to do little work. Needs significant improvement.

Back after break of 28 weeks. Was $10.00 and didn't threaten when 4th last run at this venue. Most likely not today.

First up after a break of 30 weeks. Was $6.50 and couldn't maintain the pace when 6th last start at this track and coming back in trip. Cannot recommend as a betting proposition.

Racing fresh after a break. Solid effort to run into 2nd last start at Turf Paradise and having second career run. Has strong claims.

Jumped at $2.91 and was found wanting late when 4th last start at the track. Should be swooping on the field late. Can lift.
