NOTORIOUS BLAZE (1) scored two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 8 length 5th at this track (24.53). Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. ALACRITY DAVE (6) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at Horsham over 410m behind Maximum Ruby (23.87) in a Grade 5. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Key runner on best form. CHEEKY STREAK (8) won again in quick time recording back to back wins, scoring by half a length (22.83) at Geelong over 400m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Hard to fault her recent form and can win again. ARCHIE'S GIFT (7) form at this course and distance reads well.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 5th in a Grade 5 on October 7 over 425m at this track behind Candy Pops beaten 8 lengths (24.53). Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but bumped into one better when runner up (24.46) at this track over 425m. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Has finished fourth at her last three starts, most recently over 390m at Ballarat. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Last start finished 6th on September 29 over 410m at Horsham behind Maximum Ruby beaten 6 lengths (23.87) in a Grade 5. Better than the last couple of runs suggest. Expected to do much better.

Hit the ground running last time with a strong early split and tried to lead throughout but had to settle for the minors when second (22.86) at Geelong over 400m. Looks a solid hope.

Improved two runs back to score then won again last start over 400m at Geelong (22.83), beating Archie's Gift. In top form and can make it three straight.
