ANJO TOPAZ (8) was in traffic last time at this course and distance and failed to finish. Safe beginner but wide box to overcome and will need some luck. Has the ability and looks a key chance. GOLDEN BLEND (1) stalked the lead and fought on well to finish 4.5 lengths away in third (18.67) at this track in a Grade 5 over 320m. Good beginner assisted by the inside draw. Leading chance. AUSSIE LANTERN (2) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the money last time though when second (18.43) at this track. Good beginner aided by a nice draw. Can feature again. BABETTE FUSION (4) was in the money last start at this track and distance - poses a threat again.

Fast starter. Latest effort finished 2nd over 320m at this track beaten 1.3 lengths (18.43) behind Tap Out Beau in a Grade 5 on May 13. Found one better last time. Well placed and worth following up.
