IF HE COULD (3) jumped well and was in the mix early before fading out of it late when 5th over 515m at Sandown in Grade 5 NP company. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. RIBERO (6) has missed the frame at last two runs but could not have been more impressive the run prior in his strong 22.74 win at Warragul over 400m. Top win three back and rates a key player again. FEROCIOUS CANARY (1) boasts a solid strike-rate over this trip.

Looks close to another win after her success on January 30 at Warrnambool over 450m. Last start was fourth over 400m in 22.95, behind Pretty Follie. Rates among the chances this time.

Having his first run at Geelong. Comes off an average run last start over 515m at Sandown when sixth behind Zarude Bale (30.17) in Grade 5 NP. Will not find this easy. Not keen.

Missed the frame last time but prior to that was in the money twice in a row including a narrow loss two back when second (23.40) over 410m at Horsham. Has to overcome a wide draw and looks safely held.
