Narrowly beaten last time at this track when only a neck from the winner but did record a convincing 29.73 over the 520m journey. Looms as the one to beat this time.

Placed last time (29.87) at Nowra in a Grade 5, finishing third and beaten one length. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Looks one of the chances.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 520m at this track. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Strong performance after racing just off the speed to win by 0.8 lengths at this track over 520m (30.18) beating Scatter Dunn in Grade 5 on June 19. Tempted to look elsewhere.

Turned in another winning performance after tracking the lead to make it two in a row at this track over 520m (29.89). Looks suited and should go close again.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 30.06 over 525m at The Meadows. Comes through a solid form race. Expected to feature.
