PAW QUADE (1) turned in a solid run last start over 390m at this track finishing 5th and beaten only 5 lengths (22.53). Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing. Tough to beat if on-song. MONIQUE GIBLET (8) box seated off the lead and kept coming to win (22.26) at this track in Bottom Up - Grade 7 over 390m. In sparkling form and looks the one to beat again. THRILL SEEKER (3) latest effort finished 4th in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win on July 27 over 450m at this track behind Starlet Bale beaten 7 lengths (25.96). Looks well placed here and among the chances. BLUE BREBLER (2) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.
