Odds of $9.00 and lacked competitiveness when 5th last start at this venue but has a nice advantage with a good draw. Shows good early pace. Quietly confident of a big run at decent odds.

Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last start at The Meadows. Should muster plenty of early speed. In strong racing shape since resuming from a break. Serious contender.

Was $14.00 and ran 4th last run at Geelong but returning to a rise in trip. Should be going forward early. Will try to take advantage of the box. Chances are slim.
