Stake: -

TALE OF THE LYON (1) Weakened to finish 5th last time here. Overlooking the last run and has drawn to do little work. Should jump out and bowl along. Looks to be value. QUEENOFTHEBUCKEYE (6) Resuming. Tailed off to finish 4th last start here. Capable of a strong comeback and stepping down to a lower level. Expected to be flashing home. Large claim helps. Serious player. DRIVEN FOR SUCCESS (2) Moderate showing when 6th last run at this track but has a good draw. Jeffrey A Radosevich stable are on fire recently but matched against a stronger field. Big danger. NATIONAL DIAMOND (3) Folded up in the straight when 5th last time at this track. Should improve from the last run but up against a more competitive field. Can win.

Jumped at $6.50 and was well beaten when 5th last time at the track. Overlooking the last run and gets a favourable draw. Expecting to settle positively. Facing formidable rivals. Chance and can measure up.

Was $6.50 and mediocre performance when 6th last run at this venue but has a positive draw. Luis Raul Rivera has a high strike rate on board. Some respect.

Started $8.50 and struggled with the pace when 5th last time here. Should improve from the last run but taking on stronger rivals. Won't be far away during the run. Definite winning chance.

At $14.00 didn't find the line when 7th last start at this track. Has the talent to rebound quickly but competing in a higher grade. Would be more keen on the chance of others.

Ordinary performance when 6th last time at this venue and challenged by more formidable competitors. Should be swooping on the field late. Not interested.

Resumes after a spell. At $5.00 didn't threaten when 4th last start at this venue. Capable of a strong comeback and facing a weaker group of contenders. Win will not surprise.
