SIGN ACTION (8) has a strong record this track and trip with three wins and two placings from six starts. Missed the frame latest (17.94) when fifth over 324m at Richmond Straight in a Grade 3/4. With a clean break looks hard to beat. MAX STAPPEN (4) boasts a strong record this journey here with seven wins and seven minors from 20 tries. Was out of the placings last time (23.59) at The Gardens in a Free For All, finishing eighth and beaten 9 lengths. Looks a key chance on best figures. FURIOUS (1) is a consistent dog overall, in the frame at seven of 24 starts including nine wins but missed the frame latest when sixth (17.88) over 300m at Taree Super Track. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. HEY MICKEY (5) was below best last time at this track (22.70) in a NG, finishing a 10 length fifth. Loves this draw, having won three of five starts.

Fast starter. Latest effort finished last in a Free For All on May 9 over 400m at The Gardens behind Coin Counter beaten 9 lengths (23.59). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (30.27) over 520m at Wentworth Park. Has to overcome a wide draw and appears tested on latest effort.
