Expected to feature again. COOLABAH STATION (6) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (22.56) last time in a Grade 5 at Warrnambool. Has a good record here including two wins.

Got back last start and could only manage third but before that won easily by 5 lengths at Warrnambool (22.09) beating Myrniong Storm in a Grade 4/5 on May 28. Some good form emerging from that last run. Among the chances.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and tends to spot them a start in her races, Last start finished seventh over 460m at Warragul, beaten 3.5 lengths. Can't recommend her in this.
