ETHANOL SECRET (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing eighth (30.72) last time in a Special conditions race at The Meadows. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and four minor placings to his credit. Worth another chance. URANA PARALLAX (3) ran good time (34.56) when third last start over 600m at The Meadows, the second placing in a row. Can hit the frame this time. MEPUNGA BREEZE (7) crossed from out wide chasing down the leaders to score by 2 lengths (34.54) at this track in Grade 5 over 595m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. In sparkling form and looks the one to beat again. PAW QUINBY (8) must be included in calculations.

Good effort to win last start by 5 lengths over 460m at Geelong in a handy (25.94), beating Paw Jasta. Will find this a bit tougher, prefer in something easier.

Did a good job two starts back at The Meadows to win by 2.25 lengths in 34.67, beating All Mucked Up. Last start finished 4th over 595m at this track beaten 5 lengths (34.68) behind Champlain in a Grade 4/5 on February 12. Not far from winner last time but has the job ahead here.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when second (29.62) over 515m at this track. Boxed out wide but is among the better hopes.
