Prize Money: $2,335

MR. SPECKLE (2) turned in a plain performance last time when sixth at Gunnedah over 431m behind Give A Little (25.52) in a Grade 4/5. Has ability and is a key runner. KALANI SEA (7) flew the lids with a sensational early split and hit the frame with a 4.5 lengths third (22.98) over 400m at this track. Won at her only start from this draw. Expected to be in the finish again. GIRL GOES ZIP (1) gave a start after copping a check in running and missed the frame when a 18 length seventh (23.87) at this track in a Grade 5. With a good start should be able to take advantage of the rails draw. Bold showing expected on best. KENNY'S GIRL (6) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Placed last time (23.20) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing second and beaten 4 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and six places from nine starts. Will need the right run.

Good effort to win last start by one length over 400m at this track in a handy (22.97), beating Duran Queen. Will find this a bit tougher, cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Missed the frame last start when a 10 length fifth (23.34) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Better than last run and looks an each way chance.

Showed brilliant pace early and gave a sight when a 4.5 lengths third over 400m this track in 22.98. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.
