AAP

On a short back-up. Finished well down the track in 3yo+ Hcp (56) at Bendigo last outing. New to St Arnaud. Faces a herculean task.

ILB

On a short back up. Started at $151.00 and tailed off to finish 12th last run at Bendigo but has drawn to do little work. Should be going forward early. Will be a tough ask.

Only once has he got into the winners' enclosure; finished last of 12 at Bendigo over 1m (handicap) a week ago; others have more pressing claims as this could be a hot race.

RSIS

On a quick turnaround. Started 150/1 and folded up in the straight when 12th last start at Bendigo but can save some energy from the stall.

AAP

Not disgraced at Manangatang over this distance at $12. Has built in speed. Worth a look.

ILB

Odds of $12.00 and outmatched in the run home when 4th last start at Manangatang. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide barrier. Solid chance.

Out of the frame (beaten 3½l in fourth) splitting Ginger Sweet, Pendante and Kamarooka (Manangatang) 14 days ago; patchy form recently and just the one victory on his CV; tends to find at least one too good; others make more appeal.

RSIS

At 11/1 couldn't find the line when 4th last start at Manangatang. Should be rolling forward early from the wide stall. Forward showing expected.

AAP

On a short back-up. Long winless run. Failed to threaten at Wodonga. Hard to warm to here.

ILB

On a quick back up. Started at $7.00 and didn't attack the line when 6th last time at Wodonga but has a positive alley. Watch for a sign in the market.

Good and bad recent runs found on his CV and wins infrequently; beaten a fair way when sixth at Wodonga last week; a few rivals look in good form so looks risky.

RSIS

On a short back up. Started at 6/1 and tailed off to finish 6th last run at Wodonga but drawn nicely. Respect the betting.

AAP

Experienced campaigner. Had all before him at turn and went home tamely at Hamilton. Coming back in distance. A few runs under his belt this campaign, capable of making an impact.

ILB

Jumped at $13.00 and below par when 11th last start at Hamilton. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Entitled to be big odds.

Finished towards the rear of 13 at Hamilton over 1m3f (handicap) 14 days ago; leading claims as shown he can get his head in front.

RSIS

Was 12/1 and mediocre display when 11th last run at Hamilton. Prefers to settle towards the tail.

Fresh. Veteran who has seen better days. Failed to threaten at Moe as a despised outsider. Keener on others.

ILB

Was $151.00 and nothing special when 9th last run at Moe and rises in weight. Facing a difficult task today.

Ninth of 12 over 1m at Moe (handicap) last month; has struggled to factor since winning a handicap at Bairnsdale in June; this looks a fair heat so others more appealing.

RSIS

At 150/1 not up to scratch when 9th last start at Moe and rising in weight.

Failed to threaten at Hamilton as a betting firmer. Drops to shorter trip. Others more persuasive.

ILB

Started at $4.60 and didn't find the line when 13th last time at Hamilton. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Good potential.

Tailed off 14 days ago at Hamilton upped to 1m3f; has shown glimpses of ability recently and definite chance.

RSIS

Started at 7/2 and didn't threaten when 13th last start at Hamilton. Should come to hand quickly. Can measure up against these.

AAP

No match but kept working home to finish among the placings at Manangatang over today's trip. Ticks the track and distance win box. Deep into her campaign, one for exotics.

ILB

Finished strongly when 3rd beaten by 3L last start at Manangatang. Not at all out of this race.

Has been fairly consistent of late; has scored over C&D; finished a decent third of ten splitting Ginger Sweet, Dusty's Deel and Kamarooka (Manangatang) two weeks ago; latest effort was encouraging so no surprise to see her go well.

RSIS

Managed to run into 3rd last run at Manangatang. Watch for a sign in the market.

Last success was 23 Jul 2024. Got back and ran home steadily at Manangatang. New to St Arnaud. Others with more appeal.

ILB

Jumped at $6.00 and picked up some late ground when 5th last time at Manangatang. Likely to get back. Respect the betting.

Out of the frame (beaten just under 4l in fifth) at Manangatang over 7½f (handicap, just behind Conaltri) 14 days ago; subpar record of 1-23; this looks a fair heat so others have more pressing claims.

RSIS

Started 5/1 and made up ground when 5th last time at Manangatang. Might have to make up considerable ground.

No threat to winner but ran on for the minors at Manangatang over this journey. Well into preparation now, has some claims.

ILB

Ran on when 2nd beaten by 2L last start at Manangatang. Strong prospects.

Had a number of these behind her at Manangatang two weeks ago when on the premises, finishing runner-up upped to this distance; produced a string of consistent efforts; by no means ruled out if building on last performance.

RSIS

Displayed good finishing pace when 2nd beaten by 2L last start at Manangatang. Has a good chance.

Hasn't done much since breaking her maiden. Started $7.50 when safely held in Benchmark 52 company at Manangatang over this trip. First time around St Arnaud. Others with stronger claims.

ILB

Started $7.50 and faded to finish 6th last start at Manangatang. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Beaten 6l in sixth (Manangatang) when behind Ginger Sweet, Pendante, and Dusty's Deel 14 days ago; not always shown an awful lot since winning a maiden at Ararat last November; this looks a decent race so can be taken on.

RSIS

Started 13/2 and lost ground in the run home when 6th last start at Manangatang.

Long winning drought. No threat as a $91 chance in 3yo+ (Bm62) at Warrnambool. Others carry more punch.

ILB

Lost ground in the run home when 10th last time at Warrnambool but taking on easier opposition. Stepping back up in trip.

Last of ten at Warrnambool over 7f (handicap) 23 days ago; useful at this level.

RSIS

Weakened to finish 10th last start at Warrnambool but taking on a lower class of opponents. Going back up in trip.

Battled home okay at Mt Gambier. Stamina on trial here. Right in this.

ILB

Was $5.50 and closed off nicely when 5th last run at Mount Gambier.

She meets the required standard ability wise; fair effort when beaten 3½l, finishing fifth of 15 over 7½f at Mt Gambier (handicap) 17 days ago.

RSIS

Started 9/2 and outpaced some runners late when 5th last run at Mount Gambier.

Went back, closed intently at Hamilton when second-up. Coming back in distance. Can challenge.

ILB

Was $8.00 and improved when 4th last start at Hamilton.

Good effort when beaten into fourth by less than a length at Hamilton 14 days ago upped to 1m3f; has been fairly consistent lately.

RSIS

At 7/1 advanced late into 4th last run at Hamilton.

Handy competitor. Let down fiercely from midfield to grab second at Hamilton. Switching to 2000m. Commands attention despite the big load.

ILB

Was agonizingly close last start at Hamilton. Definite claims.

Has been consistent of late; had three of these behind over 1m3f at Hamilton (handicap) when beaten a neck 14 days ago.

RSIS

Close to a win last time at Hamilton. Should go very close.

Odds correct as at 10:01 am AEDT. Odds can change.
