Narrowly clinched the victory last run here and drawn well. Will be hitting the line strongly. Form has been improving over recent runs. Place claims at best.

Back from a break of 43 weeks. Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last time at the track. Matthew Kakaley has a high strike rate on board. Good chance in this.

Got the upper hand late when winning last time around here. Won last 4 on the bounce. Driver Jason Bartlett is a bonus. Goes well and could be a value opportunity.
