KERRS ALIVE (1) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 0.6 lengths third (30.29) in an A5 at this track. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Makes plenty of appeal. ASHWOOD SHELBY (5) was out of character last run when missing the frame, finishing fifth (31.24) in an A6 at this track. Generally a safe beginner but buried in the ruck from trap five last time. Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Should be in this for a long way. SLY WOLF (3) was never in contention last time at this track, but prior to that won easily by 3 lengths at this track (30.06) beating Droopys Fervour in an A6 on April 8. The form out of last race has been strong. Bold showing expected. ADAMANT STAR (4) scored last time and can measure up again.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only third over 500m at this track in 30.29. Forward showing expected.

Good effort after tracking the speed to score in an A6 by 0.8 len at this track over 500m (30.36). In form and expected to run well again.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when fifth and beaten 11 lengths (31.24) in an A6 over 500m at this track. Forgive the latest result. Looks hard to beat this time.
