BLACK HAWK (7) got off the mark with his maiden victory last time at this track over 425m (24.46). Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. CORNHILL HUSTLER (2) finished second (24.47) two back at this track but out of the placings last time when 8th at Ballarat. One of the main contenders. ROCKLANDS GATOR (1) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 2 length second (22.59) in a Grade 7 at Warrnambool. Bold showing expected. STILTON PANAMA (8) is worth consideration.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but bumped into one better when runner up (22.59) at Warrnambool over 390m. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.

Lines up from box 4 for the first time after finishing a 6 length fourth at Ballarat (22.72) in a T3 Grade 7. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Flew the lids with a strong early split and led throughout to score an impressive win by 3 lengths over 425m at this track (24.46). Can make it back to back wins.
