ERIZA SPARKLES (7) boasts a consistent overall record including 12 wins from 25 starts, the latest hitting the minor money when third (29.69) over 520m at Richmond. Form at the trip excellent including four wins. Drawn wide but with a clean break will be tough to beat again. CLASSY BANDIT (4) steps out for the first time at this circuit. Scored in one of the quickest times on the card (29.63) latest, winning by 0.8 lengths at Wentworth Park in a Grade 5. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. One of the key runners again. IRINKA ALANA (6) won again and recorded an impressive time to make it two on end, scoring at this track over 330m (18.67). Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Form should stack up. YATHONG TIGER (1) can find the frame without surprising.

Had been racing in honest fashion before missing the frame last time out, finishing eighth (26.93) at this track. Has a low draw but needs to find best form to feature.

Caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a 0.8 lengths win at Wentworth Park over 520m in 29.63. Looks the one to beat.

Good effort to win last start by 2.25 lengths over 330m at this track in a handy (18.67), beating Let's Go Out. The form out of the last run measures up. Among the chances.

Was in the placings last time but prior to that was an impressive winner scoring by 4 lengths in a NG at Richmond and clocking a lightning 29.23 over the 520m trip. Can measure up on top win two back.

Missed the frame latest (26.59) when seventh over 457m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and five places from eight starts. Others rate better this time.
