Prize Money: $742

BACKOFTHELINE (2) is first up since finishing fifth (30.67) in an A5 at this track over 500m ten weeks ago. Strike-rate solid and expected to feature in the finish.

VOCATION (1) jumps from trap 1 again after placing (30.69) last time at this track over 500m. Key chance on best form.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th on December 8 over 500m at this track behind Wheres Bella beaten 4 lengths (30.80) in an A7. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
