ELECTRA OPAL (1) was a course and distance placegetter (16.94) last time also from the same draw, finishing a 1.75 lengths second in a Grade 5. Can find winning form here. HIGHLAND SAL (2) has a strong winning strike-rate here with six wins and a placing from 10 tries. Hit the frame latest (17.25) when second at this track in a Grade 4/5. Looks well placed here and among the chances. DAINTREE SPIRIT (4) was below best at her last start when 7th at this track following a second place finish (16.87) there two back. Worth another chance. SANDY TAUPE (7) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Won two starts back over 300m at this track. Last start she finished 2nd over 300m at this track beaten 1.75 lengths (16.94) behind Black Nevera in a Grade 5 on November 16. Draw likely to suit. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow fourth (19.49) over 350m at this track. Is a danger.

Comments

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 3.5 lengths sixth (17.10) over 300m at this track. Not far away last time but this is a stiff test.
