PAW WINKWORTH (4) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by a head at this track in a handy 22.77 beating Ultimo. Has a strong record from box 4, including two wins. Can continue the winning form. HOT SAKI (2) was an effortless winner two back when prominent throughout then got further back last time but came home hard into third and beaten 3 lengths at this track (23.13). Leading chance. GOBLIN (1) goes very well this trip starting nine times for three wins and four minors. Missed the frame latest (17.01) when eighth over 300m at Healesville in a Grade 5. Looks a key chance on best figures. PAW MADDOX (7) was strongly fancied on the back of a win two starts back but finished second last time (22.64) at Warrnambool.

Last start finished last over 300m at Healesville beaten 4.5 lengths (17.01) behind Zipping Arvada in a Grade 5 on December 14. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Warrnambool over 390m. Last start finished 3rd in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 on January 6 over 400m at this track behind Big Mako beaten 3 lengths (23.13). Rates highly on best form. Expected to feature.

Impressive performance to post a big 3.5 lengths victory in a Grade 5 last start at Sale, clocking a brilliant 24.37 for the 435m trip. Harder here but will be in this for a long way.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by a head over 400m at this track in a handy 22.77, beating Ultimo. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in that last win. Stay with him.
