BENNY NZ (7) found one better two runs back then made mistakes last time when he broke and finished 14 metres back in fourth over 2138m at this track. Only needs to get things right to be in contention. HARPERS FERRY (6) has been racing very well and deserved his success last time out, scoring by 1.4 metres over 1628m at this track. Won't find this any harder and he can go right on with the job. BOSTON BLIZZARD (4) must be considered after she finished third over 2138m at this track a week ago. MANE ATTRACTION (3) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up over 2138m at this track last time out.

Two-year-old filly facing the starter for the second time. At debut 6th (FT) over 2138m at this track well beaten by Benny (2:48.90) on July 2 at $5.50. Not keen on her chances in this field.

Last start was well beaten after breaking at this track on July 23. Two runs back 7th (FT) over 1628m at this track beaten 60 m by Harpers Ferry (2:07.40) in 2yo on July 16 at $12. Must do a lot more.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after a quick start, behind Harpers Ferry at this track over 1628m in a 2yo on July 16 at $8.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Strier at this track over 2138m in a 2yo on July 23 at $8.50. Solid top-three prospects.

Fair run when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Harpers Ferry at this track over 1628m in a 2yo on July 16 at $14. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third behind Strier at this track over 2138m in a 2yo on July 23 at $7. Bursting to win one.

Last start 5th (FT) over 2138m at this track, well beaten by Strier (2:48.50) in 2yo on July 23 at $10. Two runs back 4th (FT) over 1628m at this track beaten 10 m by Harpers Ferry (2:07.40) in 2yo on July 16 at $13. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
