GALLEYWOOD (6) missed the frame latest when sixth at The Meadows (30.52) but scored four back at The Meadows (30.20). Has a solid record over this journey. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Can discover winning form. XARA OCTAVE (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (30.70) last time in a Grade 7 at The Meadows. Her last run is a proven strong form reference. Has the ability to give this a shake. TEQUILA SPICE (1) hit the ground running last start and was never headed to land her maiden success over 500m at Bendigo (28.54). Drawn well off an inside draw. Can measure up again. SO SAY ME (3) is on a run of two minor placings – must be respected.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2.75 lengths over 500m at Bendigo in a handy 28.54, beating Clean Air. Well suited by the draw. Has hit winning form and can go on with it.

Placed only run here over this trip. Last start finished 5th over 525m at The Meadows beaten 10 lengths (30.70) behind Scary Storm in a Grade 7 on September 16. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Just been plugging away and needs to improve after being unplaced in five tries. Last start 6th over 400m at Warragul. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
