SHOT OF MAGIC (1) was checked in the run and safely held when fourth (22.70) in a Grade 5 over 400m at Maitland. Has the ability and looks a key chance. ICEBERG AHEAD (3) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 3.5 lengths at Maitland in a handy 22.35 beating Poker Nismo. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Should be in this for a long way. IOMMI (2) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when seventh at this track over 350m behind Fix It Fred (20.51) in a Grade 5. Must be included in calculations. LAMIA MODENA (8) should be thereabouts after filling a top-three at this track and distance most recently.

Well supported here last start but failed to deliver, finishing finished 4th on March 9 over 400m at Maitland behind Iceberg Ahead beaten 5 lengths (22.70) in a Grade 5. Placed two back at Richmond Straight. More than capable and has to be included.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (20.51) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length seventh. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Expected to be in the finish.

Strong performance to post a big 3.5 lengths victory in a Grade 5 last start at Maitland, clocking an outstanding 22.35 for the 400m trip. Has the ability and expected to go close again.

Good effort to win last start by one length over 350m at this track in a handy (20.10), beating Rudolf Rumble. Will find this a bit tougher, hard to recommend this time.

Won two starts back at this track over 350m in 20.08. Followed that up with a minor placing over 350m at this track at Grade 5 a week ago. Looks a solid contender.
