Odds of $14.00 and made up ground when 5th last run at the track and can find a nice position from the draw. Gets back and needs luck. This won't be easy.

At $8.50 felt the pinch when 4th last run at the track. Micah J Husbands and Saffie A Joseph Jr are a formidable team. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

First up from a break of 29 weeks and honest race when 2nd first up last preparation at Naas. First race for a new trainer and good career start. Definite claims.

Started at $8.00 and lost ground in the run home when 7th last start at this venue but having second race start. Displays good tactical speed. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.

At $28.00 couldn't stay in touch when 7th last start around here. Saffie A Joseph Jr has been training plenty of winners recently. Slim chance.

Started $53.00 and below par performance when 8th last time here. Will be giving the leaders a big start. This looks a tough assignment.

Jumped at $5.50 and outsprinted when 4th last run here. Has the speed to overcome the wide stall. Should go close.

Was $23.00 and sub-standard effort when 7th last start at this track. Might be ridden for luck. Others make far more appeal.
