OCCULENT (3) is in sizzling form lately, rocketing around this track in 19.18 to score two back then following on with a 19.18 win over 350m at this track. Flying lately and expected to go close again. POTENT CREW (1) jumped from a squeeze box last start but was quickly into stride and led throughout to score (16.84) at this track in a Grade 5 over 300m. Has a solid record from this box including three wins and a minor placing. Must be included in calculations. BULA (6) has a strong record here with five wins and four placings from 14 starts. Comes off a (16.71) win last time, scoring by 0.8 lengths in a Grade 5 over 300m at this track. Looks one of the chances. MAGIC WESTERN (2) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.

Lifted to win two runs back and got the cash again last start over 350m at this track (19.18,) beating Fernley Girl. Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.
