WIZARD WATSON (2) was below latest but prior to that a Grade 5 H winner in quick time (25.28) at Ballarat in a Grade 5 H. Likely to improve sharply this time. RHYTHMIC ENERGY (7) broke a string of placings finishing in the money four on end before a last start fourth (19.37) at Healesville. Has a good record here at this journey. Has the ability to give this a shake. SPIRALLING (1) is suited by the inside draw. Last start finished 2nd over 525m at The Meadows beaten 2.75 lengths (30.29) behind COUSIN SAL in a Grade 5 on October 10. Among the main chances. ESPECIAL HUGO (8) is a last-start placegetter here at this trip - worth considering.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Ballarat over 450m. Last start finished 5th over 450m at Ballarat beaten 8 lengths (25.49) behind Mepunga Flyer in a Grade 5 FIN on October 7. Comes through a good form race. Looks a top chance.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 2.5 lengths fourth (19.37) over 350m at Healesville. More than capable and has to be included.
