Odds of $3.00 and crept into 4th last run at this venue and has drawn to do little work. Added confidence driver with Aaron Merriman doing the steering. Very capable of taking this out.

Was agonizingly close last run at The Red Mile and was a debutant last start. Should jump out and bowl along. Can win this.

Came in 8th last start at Scioto Downs but was a debutant last start. Unlikely to feature.

Flashed home late into 2nd beaten by 6.5m last time at Scioto Downs. Should not be left out of your thoughts.

Came in 9th last start at Scioto Downs but fitter for debut run. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Will find this tough.

Controlled the speed to win by a margin of 1.5m last time at Scioto Downs and was on debut last time. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. One of the punters top hopes.
