Prize Money: $2,800

PRECOCIOUS STORM (3) jumped from a middle draw last time and could manage only fourth and beaten 5 lengths (20.18) at Grafton. Has a solid record over this journey. Looks the one to beat on his best form. GOOD ODDS RAVEN (2) latest effort finished 3rd in a Grade 4 on April 14 over 380m at this track behind Verruckt beaten 6 lengths (22.33). Looks well placed here and among the chances. FURIOUS PHANTOM (1) missed the frame latest when sixth at this track (22.26) but scored three back at this track (22.13). Yet to taste defeat from four runs out of this box. Key runner on best form. NEED A TOW (4) hit the frame here last start and can sneak into the finish again.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 6th in a Grade 4 on April 14 over 380m at this track behind White Car beaten 4 lengths (22.26). Happy to overlook recent efforts. Well placed and gets chance to find best.

Resuming from a three months spell and worth noting was a fresh up winner last time in, scoring in 19.65 over 352m at Q Lakeside. The last run is a strong form reference. Follow up.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.23) in a Grade 4, finishing a 3.5 lengths fifth. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and two places from four starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
