AAP

Gave a good sight making the frame this course over longer test. Switching to 1300m. Super fit from racing, can make his presence felt with even luck.

ILB

Managed to run into 2nd last run here but will be down in distance. Raymond Vigar and Patrick Johnston command respect as a team. Gets back and needs luck. Not threatening these.

Creditable effort to finish second here over 1m (handicap) in front of Sass last week; likely to be a threat.

RSIS

Made some ground late when 2nd last start here but dropping in distance. Raymond Vigar is in good form for this stable. Will be giving the leaders a big start.

AAP

Safely held but not totally disgraced this venue. Deep into his campaign, has some claims.

ILB

Jumped at $7.00 and got going late when 4th last time at the track and gets a favourable draw. Can win.

Could not manage better than fourth over 5½f here (handicap) last week; this looks a fair heat so can be taken on.

RSIS

Odds of 6/1 and edged past some when finishing 4th last run here and has a good draw. Good prospects.

4 weeks since last run. Ready to win. Brave after showing speed when supported this course over this distance. Placed to effect here.

ILB

Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 2nd beaten by 3/4L last run here. Jockey Jarrod Todd and trainer Gary Clarke are consistently competitive together. Entitled to be respected in betting.

Season-ticket holder here with three wins; often been there or thereabouts lately; behind King Akeed 28 days ago when not beaten far.

RSIS

Ran a solid race on the pace before weakening to finish 2nd last time at this track. Jockey Jarrod Todd and trainer Gary Clarke work well together. Strong claims.

Finished a long way from the action Hcp (70) this venue. Distant place hope only.

ILB

Odds of $7.00 and lost ground in the run home when 7th last start at the track. Hard to entertain.

Beaten 14l over 5½f here (handicap) behind King Akeed, 11 days ago; course regular who has won three times here; big player.

RSIS

Started 6/1 and couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last start at the track.

Let-up (50-days). Ordinary performance in small field this venue over longer assignment. One for multiples.

ILB

Freshened up. Started $9.50 and didn't find the line when 6th last start here and dropping in distance. Have to respect the recent Gary Clarke form. Could be in the mix.

Missed the frame (beaten 9l into sixth) over 1m here (handicap) 50 days ago; others are preferred with a few rivals in good form.

RSIS

Back from a let up. Started at 17/2 and looked outclassed when 6th last start here and down in distance. Gary Clarke stable are on fire recently.

Attempting hat-trick of wins at this venue. Won in decisive fashion this track over today's trip. Can back it up.

ILB

Reeled them in to win last time at the track and drawn well. Keeping a perfect win record the last 2 starts. Good chance in this.

Won a handicap by 1l last week; goes for a hat-trick today; likely to be a threat.

RSIS

Charged home to win last time at the track and drawn well. Can't knock the form winning 2 in a row. Very tidy performer.

Went home tamely this track at $8.50. Others carry more punch.

ILB

Started $8.50 and crept into 5th last start around here. Not in this.

This is his grade; came home fifth, beaten 7l, over 6f here (handicap) last month.

RSIS

Was 15/2 and pushed past some when 5th last run around here.

No match but kept on for a distant third in the Hcp (64) this venue over longer assignment. Course suits. Looks a serious player.

ILB

Ran out of steam towards the end when 3rd last time at this track but back to a shorter distance. Would rather look at others.

Not beaten too far when third over 1m here (handicap, just behind Barocco Bar) last week; course specialist (three wins).

RSIS

Was outmatched at the end of the race when 3rd last start at this venue but will be down in distance. Exhibiting good form in recent runs.

Third outing for new trainer/ this region. Failed to threaten this venue over this distance as an odds drifter. Hard to make a case beyond the minors.

ILB

Jumped at $9.00 and tailed off to finish 9th last time here but will appreciate the drop in weight. Likely to settle back in the field. Could not recommend.

Last of nine last week 8l behind Mods; a few rivals look in good form so may be vulnerable.

RSIS

Started at 8/1 and didn't attack the line when 9th last start around here but will benefit with the weight drop. Might be ridden for luck.

Odds correct as at Sat 14 Nov, 4:10 pm AEDT. Odds can change.
