DANIEL KEEPING (1) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (23.30) at this track behind Zipping Pfeiffer in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Expected to feature in the finish again. AUSSIE OSCAR (7) recorded a win over 400m at this track in an enormous 22.76 last start. Harder here but expected to measure up. DAPHNE ZACAPA (5) produced a respectable 22.93 when filling a minor placing over 400m at this track last start. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. COCO BELLA (8) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Bounced back last start after failing to finish two starts back when he finished 2nd in a Grade 5 on February 13 over 400m at this track behind Zipping Pfeiffer beaten 1.5 lengths (23.30). Has run blistering time here with a 22.73 PB at the distance. Hard to beat.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.24) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 2.25 lengths fourth. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Showed brilliant pace early and gave a sight when a 5.5 lengths third over 400m this track in 22.93. Better than the last couple of runs suggest. Expected to feature.

Effortless winner to post a big 6 lengths victory in a Grade 5 last start at this track, recording a dynamic 22.76 over the 400m journey. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest.
