CONNECTOR (3) settled down midfield and held his position to the line when finishing 4th (17.23) at this track. Returns to a course where he has performed well. Has ability and is a key runner.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 530m at Angle Park. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Was out of placings last time when fourth (17.23) at this track in a TG1-4W. Will jump from box 3 for the first time. Looks a leading chance.

Placed last time (17.09) at this track in a TG1-4W, finishing third and beaten 2.75 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Looks a place chance at best.
