ASTON ELISHA (1) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (22.18) in a Grade 3/4 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Key player on best and worth another chance. VILLAIN OF FIRE (4) is worth forgiving last start after finishing eighth (22.43) from Box 8 at this track over 380m. Boasts a strong record from this draw with three wins and two minor placings from six starts. Has ability and can atone. EMGRAND DRIVE (6) had the drop on the lead from the rails draw last start but could only manage third, beaten 9 lengths (22.08) at this track in a Free For All over 380m. Expected to feature again. MAPLE WAVE (8) cannot be written off despite a miss here at her latest outing.

Could manage only fourth last time but caught the eye the start prior when she clocked a slick 21.86 over 380m finishing third at this track. Rates on top and can find winning form.

Won two starts back at this track over 380m in 21.84. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 380m at this track at Grade 1/2 level. Looks tested in this company.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (21.89) over 380m at this track. Tough draw to overcome and will need everything to go her way.
