FIRE AND GRAVY (3) finished second last time (23.56) at Casino after winning at her previous three outings. Form here sound including six wins.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by a neck at Casino (16.89) beating Carramar Drive in a Mix 1/2/3 on March 12. Rates among the chances this time.

In the money last time at Casino (23.64) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 6 length third. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Will need some luck to feature.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 350m. Last start finished 2nd over 411m at Casino beaten 5.5 lengths (23.56) behind Sweetest Of All in a Grade 3/4 on March 20. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Go close on her best form.

Was a winner three back at this track then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when seventh (17.88) at Taree Super Track. Has ability but will need everything to go right.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but bumped into one better when runner up (23.51) at Casino over 411m. Comes through a good form race. Looks a definite chance.

Hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior was a strong winner scoring by 2.25 lengths in a Free For All at this track and clocking an excellent 19.86 for the 350m trip. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back.
