CROSSBAR (3) posted a strong 29.64 when placed over 491m at this track last start in an A1. Hot time latest and looms as the one to beat. WAIKIKI DARREN (5) was prominent throughout when winning two back but could manage only midfield last time when 6th and beaten 10 lengths at this track (30.16). Should be about the money. TRUMPERS SHREQ (4) boasts a strong record this journey here with eight wins and five minors from 22 tries. Below best last time at this track (29.69) in an A1, finishing a 2.25 lengths fourth. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. MEADOW GROVE (1) can run a bold race on best form. Something for the Multiples: NUCLEAR TEXTBOOK (2)

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a sensational early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fifth (29.72) at this track over 491m. Leading chance on best form.

Flew the lids with a hot pace early and hit the frame with a 1.75 lengths second (29.64) at this track, making it two placings on end. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.
