Returns from a three-month break after ending last campaign with a ninth in Class 3 grade at Bunbury, beaten just over six lengths on soft ground after settling well back and laying out throughout. The prior second at Pinjarra as favourite was much better, and he has trialled at Belmont Park since. Must lift sharply.

Returns from a five-week freshening after another honest effort at this track, finishing third in 1 Metro Win Saturday company and beaten half a length by Anaballistic. He had been beaten only a neck at this venue the start before and his 1000m record is reliable enough, with two wins and four placings from nine tries. Easier company helps, though the wide draw keeps him to place calculations.

Returns from a four-month break after signing off last campaign with a strong Open win at this venue, covering ground before getting over the top of Ace Queen Suited on soft ground. He had also been third to In Good Nicc here two back, beaten just over half a length, so the local form is sound. The 1000m record is the query, but his form gives him a big say.

Kept her unbeaten record intact at Ascot last start, winning a NMW1Y by a nose over Ripper Farooq despite being held up passing the 150m before angling into clear running. Her debut win at Northam in a Mdn was decisive enough, and she has already won at this distance and on wet ground. Third-up, proven in the wet and looks the one to beat.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing last in a BM68+ at Port Hedland, beaten ten lengths by Border Control after sitting behind the leaders and weakening late. The run prior was a narrow second at Roebourne, so there is a better performance in the record, but he has only placed twice from seven tries around 1000m. Has 1000m doubts and must improve on recent figures.

Returns from a lengthy spell with a close second in her latest Belmont Park trial, which gives some fitness guide. Her last two runs before the break were plain, finishing sixth at Ballarat as favourite and then seventh at Mt Gambier when she led but did not quicken. New 1000m task is the question, but her overall record keeps her in the place mix.

Comes off a Northam win as favourite, scoring by just over half a length from Wiluna Lass, and she had been second to the same horse in a Class 1 at this track the run before. Her season has been very consistent, with two wins and two placings from four starts, and the 1000m record is strong. Honest enough, but the main pair bring stronger profiles.

Returns from a four-month break after a plain ninth at this track over 1700m, beaten just over seven lengths by Shimonoseki at long odds and unable to muster a challenge. The start prior at Pinjarra Scarpside was also a long-odds seventh after beginning slowly. Has plenty to find.
