ATTICUS (8) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth (30.40) in a Grade 5 at this track. Form at the trip excellent including two wins. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. COLLESSIE (7) jumped from a low draw and boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 0.8 lengths (37.93) behind One Feather at Warrnambool. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Must be included in calculations. STILL TALKIN' (4) scored two back in quick then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 11 length 6th at Warragul (26.58). Solid formlines coming through her last run. Has ability and can measure up. OTTO ROSE (1) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Good effort to win last start by 3.5 lengths over 525m at The Meadows in a handy (30.28), beating Grapefruit Tito. Will find this a bit tougher, others better.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won comfortably by 3.5 lengths at Warragul (26.37) beating Overstated in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win on September 8. Capable of taking this out.

Produced a good run, hitting the frame last run (37.93) at Warrnambool in a Restricted WIN. Has first look at box 7 this time. Makes strong appeal.

Hasn't been that impressive recently but he goes well over this track and distance with two wins from three starts. Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.
