Stake: $3,629

PAW XABIA (7) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 2.75 lengths away in second (22.46). Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Rates highly and will give a great sight. SKETCHY DEMOS (4) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (22.55) last time out at this track. Solid winning record at this trip. Boasts two wins from five starts out of this box. Expected to be in the finish again. KIMIKO (2) is a handy type who was well below best latest at The Meadows, finishing fourth (31.03) in a Grade 5. Shuffled back off the inside last time. Was a winner at her only start from this draw. Key runner on best form. ALL TALKER (1) was below best last time at Healesville (19.92) in a Grade 5, finishing a 6 length eighth. Has four wins already from this draw.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Ballarat over 450m in 25.60. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 525m at The Meadows at Grade 5 level. Has claims if at her best.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 410m at Horsham in a handy (23.66), beating Ultimate Blend. Will find this a bit tougher, others better.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 2 length second but did clock a superb 22.55 over the 400m journey. Expected to push the clock again here.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won easily by 3.5 lengths at Warrnambool (22.38) beating Paw Karson in a Grade 5 on July 10. Better off looking to others.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 2.75 lengths second at this track but did record a head turning 22.46 over the 400m journey. Can measure up with a repeat of that effort.
