HARA'S PEST (1) has a terrific record this track and trip with two wins and four placings from six starts. Placed last time (21.91) at this track in a Grade 3, finishing second and beaten 4.5 lengths. Appeals as a leading chance in this. FEDERAL NOTICE (2) is a promising dog in the frame at 20 of 42 starts including 13 wins and was in the minors again latest (18.42) over 320m at Richmond. Form at the trip sound including four wins. Super consistent and can feature with the right run. ASTON ELISHA (8) had been racing in honest fashion recording two placings in a row before finishing fifth (22.40) at this track latest. Key runner on best form. MAPLE WAVE (7) collected a minor prize last start and ran time in the process - must be considered.

In the money last time at this track (21.91) in a Grade 3, finishing a 4.5 lengths second. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Has been in the money the last two runs. Finished third at Richmond in 18.42 last time but the start prior clocked a slick 18.22 over 320m finishing second at Richmond. Expected to go close with a repeat.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by 1.5 lengths at this track (21.74) beating Gidgee Bug in a Grade 2/3 on May 19. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.03) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 6 length fifth. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
