MERRY MERRIWA (2) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 2nd at Dubbo over 400m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Can find winning form. FLYING GECKO (7) placed last time (26.22) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths. Has already won out of this draw. Looks one of the chances. LUMEAH ZIGGY (1) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fifth (20.41) at Goulburn in a Grade 5. Rates a winning chance on best. LUMEAH STORM (8) is on a run of four minor placings – demands consideration.

Was out of placings last time (20.41) at Goulburn in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 4 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minors. Looks one of the chances.

Could only manage seventh last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (23.18) over 400m at Wagga. Tough draw to overcome and needs to find best form to feature.
