HARD COMPASS (2) broke from the inside draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only a long neck (24.52) behind MILITANT STORM at Bendigo. Makes plenty of appeal. KRAKEN DEMON (1) was narrowly beaten when placing two back but missed the frame latest finishing fourth (26.18) in a Grade 5 at this track. Can find the frame this time. NED THE KNIGHT (8) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 2.5 lengths at Bendigo in a handy 24.64 beating Classy Shifter. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Sure to measure up. ALFIE ABALONE (3) has strong credentials from this draw.

Latest effort finished 4th in a Grade 5 on August 21 over 450m at this track behind Kraken Missiles beaten 6 lengths (26.18). Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in his races. Last start finished sixth over 460m at Geelong, beaten 7 lengths. Others preferred.

Good effort to win last start by a long neck over 425m at Bendigo in a handy (24.49), beating Hard Compass. Will find this a bit tougher, happy enough to avoid.

Good performance after racing just off the speed to win by 2.5 lengths at Bendigo over 425m (24.64) beating Classy Shifter in Grade 5 on August 20. Expected to measure up again.
