FIRE AND GRAVY (1) scorched around 350m in 19.78 when winning a Grade 4/5 at this track last start. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. INTEGRITY AL (7) boasts strong form at this distance having won two times from three starts. Was out of placings last time (20.15) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Can hit the frame with the right run. OTHELLO (2) finished fourth last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 350m at this track, taking a Grade 5 in a quick 20.00. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. KINGSBRAE REX (3) profiles nicely here at this trip.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by one length at Casino (16.74) beating Where's The Boss in a Grade 4/5 on February 5. Likely to find this too tough.

Did a good job two starts back at Casino to win by 2.25 lengths in 23.62, beating Heroic Federer. Last start finished last on February 24 over 411m at Casino behind Swift Grant beaten 9 lengths (23.98) in a Free For All. Will need to improve to feature.
