PAW DAHLIA (2) has not raced since scoring (18.06) over 305m at Mt Gambier five-and-a-half months ago. Has the ability and expected to prove tough to beat this time. SIMPLY NED (3) was out of the placings last time when fifth at Bendigo (24.59) but scored four back at Bendigo (24.20). Great chance to atone. ASTON NIJINSKY (5) held his own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only (23.07) behind Star Of Venus at Warrnambool. Expected to feature. BLAME KARISSA (4) was in the money last start and likely to feature again.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th in a Grade 5 on July 15 over 425m at Bendigo behind Midnight Thunder beaten 4.5 lengths (24.59). Placed two back at Bendigo. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.
