Jumped at $23.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last run at the track but can save some energy from the stall. Prefer in an easier race.

Finished 2nd last run around here and can find a nice position from the draw. Should be going forward early. Definite claims for punters.

Odds of $36.00 and lost ground in the run home when 5th last start at the track and back in trip. Highly unlikely it will trouble the judge.

Resumes from a spell. At $28.00 clearly outclassed when 7th last run here. Likely to get back in the field. Too much luck needed to come into contention.

Zipped home into 3rd beaten by 3 3/4L last start at this venue and fitter for debut run. Should be swooping on the field late. Chance and can measure up.
