Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Q Lakeside over 390m in 21.81 last start, beating Blazing Early. Likes the rails so has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Has hit the frame at his last three runs, the latest finishing third at big odds in 25.64 at Q Lakeside. Squeeze draw to overcome. Looks tested in this line-up.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at her last couple, most recently over 520m at Q Parklands in a handy 30.16 beating Canya Break Even. The form from the last run stacks up nicely. Worth following up.
