WILGUNYA KNIGHT (8) placed last time (17.13) at this track in a NG, finishing second and beaten 6 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. RISKY SPECIAL (1) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 6 lengths at this track in a handy 16.73 beating WILGUNYA KNIGHT. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. In great form and can continue his winning ways. KOORINGA KATE (2) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from four starts. Placed last time (17.18) at this track in a NG, finishing third and beaten 6 lengths. Looks a key chance on best figures. SWIFT GRANT (4) racing over this course and distance brings the best out in him.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 6 length third (17.18) over 300m at this track and making it two placings on end. Unbeaten in two starts from this draw. Winning chance.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (17.29) over 300m at this track. Has a solid record off the draw but needs to find best form to feature.

Well supported last time and rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but had to settle for the minor money, finishing a 6 length second (17.13) over 300m at this track. Goes very well from this box including three wins. Leading player.
