OPAWA EVANS (3) boasts a strong record this journey with 14 wins and four minors from 24 tries. Missed the frame latest (17.32) when sixth over 295m at this track in a Class 5 H. Has been racing stronger fields than today and should feature. KAREN JEWEL (6) finished second last start over 295m at this track but was game in defeat in a decent 17.16. Expected to feature again. GO LARRY (5) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (17.16) in a Class 5 H at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Expected to do much better this time with luck in running. TABETHA JEWEL (2) was in the money last start at big odds - poses a threat again.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 3 length second but did record an excellent 17.16 for the 295m trip. Racing well enough to fully test this line-up.
