SCATALOTADINGDONG (2) Flew home to win last start at the track and showing consistent performance in races. Drawn nicely. Looks promising in this race.

Started $4.00 and couldn't stay in touch when 5th last run at this venue. Can make a comeback and facing an increased distance. Should muster plenty of early speed. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Did well to finish 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run at this track and returns to a rise in trip. Competing at a higher level of competition. Could feature here.

Jumped at $12.00 and didn't attack the line when 4th last start at the track. Expected to rebound and stepping down to a lower level. Stepping up in trip. Can win this.

Finished hard to win last time at this track and rising in distance. Won't be far away during the run. On an upward trajectory in recent races. Marginal prospect.
