MR. FLASH (3) took advantage of the inside draw with an all-the-way win last start (22.51) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m.

Missed the frame latest (24.70) when fifth over 425m at Bendigo in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed seven times. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Improved sharply when second behind Lyrical Cripps at Bendigo last start over 425m (24.65). Good beginner who shouldn't be far away in the run.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, racing well and has to be included.
