Impressed when she scored by a good margin last start over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway, that effort following a minor placing the run before. Should go on with it.

Good effort again last start when he finished 1.4 metres away in second over 2200m at this track. Has been racing well and is sure to prove tough to beat.

Has not been racing well, including a poor effort last time when a long way back in tenth over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway. Prefer others.

Won two starts ago at this track then didn't measure up last time when beaten 24 metres over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway. Might find this a bit tough.

Drew awkwardly last start and finished ninth over 2200m at this track after scoring at the previous two runs. Willing to forgive the run and go on the previous fine form.
