Place
F: 11x53B(7)W(58.0)

Won
F: 4x232B(4)W(58.5)
( J-Jordan Childs )

Place
F: x557xB(2)W(59.5)
( J-Jamie Melham )
( T-Tony & Calvin McEvoy )

Place
F: 54121B(8)W(56.0)

Dividend : $4.10, $1.50
Won
F: 61234B(2)W(57.5)
( J-Jamie Melham )
( T-L & T Corstens & W Larkin )
It likes to ride the speed, and it could give a good kick down the Flemington straight. Rock-solid at the each-way odds, and it could upset the fav.
Next Best
1 Jimmy The Bear
F: 112x8B(6)W(60.0)
( J-Billy Egan )
( T-Patrick & Michelle Payne )
Likely to settle off the speed, and if they go quickly in front, it could be the one motoring home. Yet to finish worse than second in five second-up starts.
Consider
7 Grid Girl
F: 8x111B(1)W(54.0)
( J-Michael Dee )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
Tough to ignore its form this prep after notching three consecutive wins. Gets the inside draw and 54kg, which should take it close.

Better than what it has shown at times this campaign. Happy to give it one more chance.

Place
F: 07050B(6)W(55.5)
( J-Teo Nugent )

Won
F: 91652B(1)W(55.0)

Next Best
3 Mystic Reign
F: 11x0xB(10)W(60.0)
( J-Logan Bates )
( T-Grahame Begg )
It had one run last time in work and it didn't fire. However, its form prior was good, and drawing wide down the straight can be the place to be.
Consider
2 One Hard Lady
F: 7x123B(7)W(60.5)
( J-Billy Egan )
( T-Donna Scott )
Always a tough type to beat. It likes to set the tempo and give punters a good sight, so it can't be overlooked as a winning chance.
