DISTANCE DRUMS (8) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (28.67) in a Grade 5 at this track. Form at the trip sound including four wins. Worth another chance. LAST RUPEE (4) was drawn the middle last start but pinged the lids and recorded an all-the-way win (27.94) at this track in a Grade 5 over 484m. Unbeaten from this box in two starts. Has definite claims. JAVEN'S SHOT (2) is yet to miss the frame this course and distance. Last start finished 3rd in a Grade 5 on October 7 over 484m at this track behind LAST RUPEE beaten 3 lengths (28.15). Can hit the frame with the right run. POPPY VALENTINA (7) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 484m at this track. This looks too tough.
