RIVERDALE CLYDE (1) finished second (22.94) two back at this track but out of the placings last time when 8th there. Has a good record here at this journey. Has winning claims on his best figures. SMILING LILY (8) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 0.6 lengths at this track in a handy 23.01 beating BONDED. Sure to measure up. BONDED (2) finds it hard to break through. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when second (23.05) at this track. Leading player again. YELLOW OCHRE (7) will run well despite no experience on this track.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 0.6 lengths second over 400m this track in 23.05. Boxed on well last time to hit the frame. Rates highly again.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by one length at Shepparton (22.90) beating Ocean Burn in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 on January 29. Needs to find a bit more.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (22.85) at Ballarat over 390m. Should be around the mark.
