Stake: $3,629

JUMBUK JOHNNY (5) settled down midfield and held his position to the line when finishing 4th (22.62) at Ballarat. Form here at this distance is sound. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Should bounce back. HERE COMES BLUE (4) ran below his best last time finishing seventh (19.55) over 350m at Healesville in a Grade 5 H. Has a strong winning record at this journey. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Can atone. PARUMBA RUMBA (7) was a winner (22.88) at Warragul two back but out of the placings last time when 7th there. Can figure in the finish. ROYAL PRIDE (8) is worth including.

Missed the frame latest (22.62) when fourth over 390m at Ballarat in a Grade 5. Has performed well off the draw with a win and three places from five starts. Looks a place chance at best.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 2.75 lengths at Warragul (22.88) beating Promises To Be in a Grade 5 on April 15. Prefer to watch at this stage.
