RED CABANG (1) turned spotting a big start finishing eighth (23.49) last time in a Grade 5 at Shepparton. Has a good record at this journey. Can discover winning form. NICKLEBY ACTION (7) was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 5.5 lengths third (24.36) over 425m at this track. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Expected to be in the finish again. GUMTREE HILL (3) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by a neck at this track in a handy 24.39 beating Bayini. The form out of his last race has been franked. Can make it back-to-back wins. NUCLEAR CODE (8) will make her presence felt following a brief layoff.

Good effort to win last start by a nose over 390m at Shepparton in a handy (23.05), beating Hectic Harry. Will find this a bit tougher, doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Shepparton over 390m in 23.01. Followed that up with a minor placing over 425m at this track at Grade 5 a week ago. No easier here so may struggle.
