MICK'S BELLE (2) boasts a strong record this course with three wins and two minors from six tries. Placed last time (21.91) at this track in a Grade 3/4, finishing third and beaten 2.5 lengths. Looks a key chance on best form. STAPPEN ON TAP (1) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing seventh (22.42) last time in a Grade 4 at this track. Has a good record at this journey. The form out of last race has been strong. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. GOOD ODDS RAVEN (4) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, the latest scoring at this track over 380m. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Form should stack up. RUXTON FLAME (3) picked up a cheque last time and is in the mix again.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 2.5 lengths third but did clock a slick 21.91 over the 380m trip. Can measure up with a repeat of that effort.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 3rd on March 11 over 407m at Rockhampton behind Farmor Leeway beaten 2 lengths (23.97) in a Grade 4/5. In form and another win would not surprise.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, can bounce back. One of the main chances.
