INDIAN STAR (3) shapes well after a sharp run last time, finishing third in a Special conditions SF at this track in 30.00. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest. MONEY SCIENCE (4) showed blistering pace early and gave a sight when in the minors, beaten one length over 485m Horsham in 27.52. Still to record a win from this draw but has never missed the frame in two starts. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. SO SAY ME (1) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by half a length at Sandown in a handy 29.84 beating Galleywood. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. ELORA DASH (7) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Sandown over 515m in 29.84 last start, beating Galleywood. The form from the last run stacks up well. Worth including.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by half a length at Geelong (22.58) beating Street Legal in a Mix 6/7 on September 18. Looks up against it this time.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 4.5 lengths third at this track but did record a solid 30.00 over the 525m trip. Looks the one to beat with a repeat of that effort.

In the money last time at Horsham (27.52) in a Restricted WIN, finishing a one length second. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. Expected to go close.
