STRIKER STAR (8) comes off a moderate effort last start, finishing fourth at this track over 380m behind Demister (22.56). Has ability and is a key runner. SWANKY FRANKY (4) comes off an average performance last start when fifth at this track over 380m behind Fly Like Potter (22.91) in a Maiden. Likely to be about the mark.

Good effort last time when third (22.86) over 380m at this track. Drawn close to the inside. One of the better hopes.

Is a nine start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when second (22.41) over 380m at this track. Was prominent most of the way and only faded late. In the mix.
