RINGBARK GUS (4) was a (19.31) winner last time out at this track from Box 4. Solid beginner who can clear the tricky draw. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. THERMODYNAMIC (3) failed to threaten on debut finishing fourth (19.50) at this track over 350m. Can improve sharply here. NIGHTS BUT YOUNG (1) placed two back in a Maiden at this track then backed that up with a second (19.19) over 350m at this track last time. Safe beginner and drawn well on the inside. Rates a winning chance on best. CABERNET CARTEL (8) was in the money last start after showing early dash - poses a threat again.

Yet to break through in seven runs, the latest effort a second over 350m at this track in 19.19. Should prove hard to beat.

Ran a solid race on debut when settled well off the lead early but got home well to finish fourth (19.50) at this track over 350m. Likely to be much improved. Capable of a strong show.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (19.36) over 350m at this track. Squeeze draw to overcome. Looks to have the job ahead.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 350m in 19.06 last start, beating Nights But Young. Makes appeal on the back of that latest win.

Is a three start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when third (19.42) over 350m at this track. Led for most of the way but faded over the final stages. Best form too good to ignore.

Turned in a fair debut over 350m at this track where he settled on speed and faded late to finish fifth (19.45). Likely to be much improved. Other runners look much more appealing.
