VIGOROUS XANA (4) comes here off a speedy win over 480m at this track in 28.93. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest. BALLINULTY FLICK (6) was an impressive winner last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by 1.5 lengths (28.93) at this track. Deserved serious consideration again. SNUGGIE BENNY (3) stalked the lead from trap five before hitting the front turning and lifting to score (29.04) at this track in an A4 over 480m. Goes very well from this draw with four wins and two minor placings from 10 starts. Leading chance again. FOUR (1) scored in dominant fashion last time. Right in the mix.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by half a length in 29.08. Last start finished 5th in an A2 on July 31 over 480m at this track behind Run For Rum beaten 5.5 lengths (29.22). Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.
