SO NAIVE (8) found the frame for the second consecutive time when narrowly beaten into second last time out (22.13) over 383m at this track. Can improve sharply here. SYDNEY SURCHARGE (1) comes here after a sizzling Grade 3/4 win at this track over 312m in 18.14. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. BRAVE EMBER (7) did the right thing for favourite backers last time and is sure to feature again.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 383m at this track. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 0.8 lengths in 22.36, beating Mermaid Shimmer. Last start finished 4th on June 8 over 383m at this track behind Bart's Chance beaten 2.5 lengths (22.49) in a OPEN. Hard to have this time.

Solid performance to win by 1.3 lengths at this track over 383m (22.36) beating Pursuit in Grade 5 on June 8. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.
