ORARA BOB (5) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 6 length third (20.25) in a Mix at this track. The form from his last run stacks up well. Sure to be about the mark. EBONY VALLEY (2) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 3.5 lengths (20.57) at this track. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from four starts. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. SPITFIRE REIGN (3) jumped from the inside and boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 1.75 lengths (20.12) behind Baby Billy at this track. Winning chance. CALL TO ARMS (4) is always hard to beat when drawn in this box.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (20.57) in a Grade 5, finishing a 3.5 lengths fourth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Key chance and should go close.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 20.12 over 350m at this track. Key chance on best form.

Was out of placings last time (24.06) at Casino in a Grade 4/5, finishing fifth and beaten 3 lengths. Strong record off the draw with five wins and three minors from 10 starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
