Prize Money: $1,530

ZOOM BOOM (3) was a winner (16.97) at Healesville two back but out of the placings last time when 7th at Geelong. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. NUCLEAR CODE (2) ran below her best last time finishing seventh (20.64) over 350m at Traralgon in a Grade 5 H. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Great chance to atone. DUKE CABOOM (1) is suited by the inside draw. Last start finished 4th on June 18 over 305m at Mt Gambier behind Rough Girl Ruby beaten 6 lengths (18.20) in a Other. Can feature in the finish. SEATS TWO (4) is worth including after a top-three finish from the same draw most recently.

Missed the frame latest (18.20) when fourth over 305m at Mt Gambier in a Other. Has one win and three placings from five starts from the draw. Looks suited and should go close.

Returns from a nine weeks break and only other fresh up run was on debut, when a 23.33 winner at big odds over 400m at Mt Gambier. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when second (22.50) over 390m at Warrnambool. Squeeze draw to overcome. Has ability and should run well.

Had been in consistent form with five minors on end before missing the frame last start when seventh (27.12) at Geelong. Tough draw to overcome and appears tested on latest effort.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (22.82) at big odds over 390m at Warrnambool. Has to overcome a wide draw but can measure up.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
