HURRICANE (4) produced an impressive win last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by 5.5 lengths (29.51) at this track. Can measure up again. INDY MELMEN (1) drifted back from the inside but sliced through to hit the frame when a 5.5 lengths second (30.35) at this track in Maiden FIN. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Expected to be in the finish again. FLYING TOXIC (6) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 7th at this track following on from a second place finish (29.91) there the start prior. Should be about the money. GNARLACK (2) looks an each-way chance.

Won two starts back on debut over 515m at this track. Last start he finished 2nd over 515m at this track beaten 5.5 lengths (30.35) behind Mikado Mania in a Maiden FIN on March 26. Draw likely to suit. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Didn't make the placings last time at The Meadows (31.05) in a Mix 6/7, finishing a 8 length sixth. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Suited here and expected to run well.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 515m at this track. That followed a win two back in 29.54 beating Maryvale Girl over 510m at Sale. Can't recommend in this field.

Strong performance to post a big 5.5 lengths victory in a Maiden last start at this track, clocking a fast 29.51 over the 515m trip. Hard to top on that run.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (29.91) at big odds over 515m at this track. Drawn out wide but capable of a better result.
