AAP

Sound effort in grinding finish at Geelong. Jumper who is more than adept on that flat. Right in this.

ILB

At $17.00 picked up some late ground when 5th last start at Geelong and lining up against easier rivals. Tom Ryan rates highly aboard and back to a longer distance. Entitled to be respected in betting.

RP

Resume shows that he is a proven winner (seeking a 14th career win); out of the frame (beaten 3½l in fifth) over 1m4f at Geelong (handicap) two weeks ago; a major contender.

RSIS

Odds of 16/1 and moved through the field into 5th last time at Geelong and competing in an easier class. Tom Ryan is a plus. Finishes off strongly. Competitive type.

AAP

Well back and never a factor at Geelong. Rise in trip will suit and gets a soft run from the draw.

ILB

Odds of $6.50 and disappointing display when 9th last run at Geelong. Looking for an improved run and facing a weaker group of contenders. Back over extra ground. Expected to be competitive.

RP

Ninth of 11 beaten 6l over 1m4f at Geelong (handicap, close behind The Cunning Fox) two weeks ago; can be a player at this level; hard to dismiss given he was third (albeit some way back) two starts ago.

RSIS

Odds of 11/2 and disappointing display when 9th last time at Geelong. Looking past the last run and back in an easier grade. Steven Pateman is an advantage. Holds a major chance.

AAP

Reasonable effort without seriously threatening at Cranbourne. More ground a plus. Can have a major say.

ILB

Started $16.00 and moved through the field into 5th last time at Cranbourne and has a nice advantage with a good alley. Can't leave out of your calculations.

RP

Largely disappointing since successful in a handicap at Murtoa in July; not beaten too far (just over 2l) over 1m5f at Cranbourne (handicap) two weeks ago; easy to oppose with a number of her rivals in good nick.

RSIS

Started 15/1 and passed some rivals in the late stages when 5th last run at Cranbourne and gets the perfect stall. Betting is the best guide.

AAP

Honest type. Been mixing his distances but stays under strong notice for this.

ILB

Flew home to win last run at Penola and rising in trip. Jockey Luca Remondet and trainer Nell Carter show promise as a duo. Running with confidence this preparation. Place claims.

RP

Won a handicap by 2l (dropped to 1m2f) at Penola two weeks ago.

RSIS

Ran over the top of them when winning last run at Penola and going over more ground. Jockey Luca Remondet and trainer Nell Carter work well together.

Let-up (44-days). Finished within striking distance (Bm75) at Mt Gambier as an outsider. Hard to warm to.

ILB

Back from a freshen up. Didn't maintain the pace throughout when 4th last time at Mount Gambier and has been racing in stronger company. Betting is the best guide.

RP

Posted respectable effort when beaten just over 1l at Mt Gambier 44 days ago; successful once in his career; facing a testing assignment and not easy to fancy.

RSIS

Back from a let up. Started to tire when 4th last start at Mount Gambier and up against a less competitive field. Watch betting.

Gritty on pace victory at Ballarat. Can go on with it after breaking the maiden last start.

ILB

Rocketed home when winning last start at Ballarat. Won't be far away during the run. Unlikely to cause an upset.

RP

Appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; landed a narrow success in a maiden when off the mark at Ballarat last month; likely to be in contention.

RSIS

Picked up late to win last start at Ballarat. Has shown early pace in races to date.

On a quick back-up. First try at 3200m. Hard fit, could give some cheek.

ILB

On a short back up. Managed to run into 3rd last run at Swan Hill and facing a rise in trip.

RP

Went off 18-1 when good third at Swan Hill last Tuesday upped to 1m4f; passed over as not in the habit of winning recently.

RSIS

On a short back up. Displayed good finishing pace when 3rd beaten by 1L last run at Swan Hill and racing over a longer distance.

Comments

AAP

Game effort at Mornington. Unexposed at trip. Needs to lift again here.

ILB

Managed to run into 2nd beaten by 3/4L last time at Mornington. Would not recommend.

RP

Cracking effort in defeat at Mornington over 1m4f (maiden) last month; has kicked on in his last couple of races but still winless and defeats stacking up (13 on the bounce); stepping up in trip and others more likely.

RSIS

Improved to place when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last time at Mornington.

Odds correct as at . Odds can change.
