WINNALEAH (2) continued her winning form with another strong run to make it two on end at this track over 300m (17.01). Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from three starts. In form and can go on with it. HAPPY CHICK (8) made light work of a wide draw last time with a slick early sectional but gathered in and had to settle for the minors, finishing third (17.13) at this track over 300m. Has a solid record from this box including three wins and a minor placing. Expected to feature. FIRE UP MARK (1) has mixed form recently, finishing seventh (26.31) in a Grade 5 at Ballarat latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Can turn it around this time. BE COURAGEOUS (7) will have admirers again after placing from the same draw last time out.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (20.65) over 350m at Traralgon. Has a fair record off the rails draw and can measure up.

Has finished eighth at his last couple of starts, most recently at Shepparton over 390m. Capable of much better. Worth keeping safe.

Has finished in the placings at last two, the latest when second (17.01) at big odds over 300m at this track. Awkward draw to overcome. Will need plenty of luck.

Was out of placings last time (23.40) at Warragul in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 9 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and seven places from 12 starts. Others appear better placed.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in his races. Last start finished eighth over 425m at Bendigo, beaten 17 lengths. Not among the main chances this time.

Comments

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 2.5 lengths third over 300m at this track, clocking 17.13. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.
