AAP

Unraced 4yo gelding a half-brother to Charlevoix. Jump-outs only fair. Look to market for a further guide.

ILB

Brent Butcher trained 4yo by Tagaloa having first race start and drawn nicely. Watch for a sign in the market.

Already a gelding; first competitive racecourse experience; related to Beachgoer, winning form over 1m2f-1m7f; he should go close as some good aspects to his profile.

RSIS

4yo debutant sired by Tagaloa for Brent Butcher and drawn nicely.

AAP

Limited exposure so far for this 4-year-old, who has managed only a 3rd from 4 outings. Dropped out to last and never sighted at Moe first up. Others with stronger claims.

ILB

Odds of $151.00 and average performance when 10th last start at Moe. Likely to settle back in the field. Not interested today.

Last of ten over 5½f at Moe (maiden) two weeks ago; four-race maiden but has managed to finish third; now upped in trip and is passed over.

RSIS

At 150/1 below par performance when 10th last time at Moe. Gets back and needs luck.

Failed to threaten (outside alley) in rain affected going at Bairnsdale first up at healthy odds. Building fitness. Only for the minors here.

ILB

Started $21.00 and made ground when closing off to finish 5th last time at Bairnsdale. Will be a difficult assignment.

Behind Castelli In Aria at Bairnsdale over 6f (maiden) when beaten 9l (fifth of nine) 19 days ago; winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 15; others more likely.

RSIS

Started 20/1 and pushed past some when 5th last start at Bairnsdale.

$150k purchase. Out of a half-sister to G2 winner Santos. Jump-outs have only been fair to date. Odds may prove best guide here.

Pierata 4yo trained by Lloyd Kennewell having first race appearance. Keep your eye on the market.

Related to Texas Open (winner from 4½f up to 7f); racing education begins here for this son of Pierata; might have a say with signs of encouragement in profile.

AAP

Lightly raced and still learning the caper. No match but still very brave in defeat in 3yo+ Mdn Plate at Bairnsdale after lengthy absence. Better for the outing. Rates highly in this affair.

ILB

Displayed good finishing speed when 2nd beaten by 2 1/2L last time at Bairnsdale and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Shows good early pace. Should feature prominently.

Favourite when runner-up over 6f at Bairnsdale (maiden) 19 days ago; appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs.

RSIS

Claimed a spot in the placings when 2nd last time at Bairnsdale and showing consistent performance in races. Should muster plenty of early pace. Strong chance.

Got back and wasn't totally disgraced at Cranbourne first up. Strips fitter and takes a 2kg claim. Usually gets back. Can play a role.

ILB

Started $13.00 and finished 6th last time at Cranbourne. Has the ability to turn things around and drawn well. Will show up at the business end.

Not beaten that far in sixth (3½l) over 6f at Cranbourne (maiden) when dropped in distance 22 days ago; winless in seven starts but has shown promise with second her top showing; easy to oppose.

RSIS

Was 12/1 and came in 6th last run at Cranbourne. May see an upturn in form and drawn beautifully. Holds a major chance.

Trials (1:0-0-0). $220k purchase. Out of a stakes-placed mare who won five races. Recent 3rd at a Pakenham jump-out. Nice gate. Market watch advised.

First race appearance 3yo by Dundeel for trainer Charlotte Littlefield. Watch the market.

Sire can produce useful types; first race for the son of Dundeel; has to be feared as some good aspects to his profile.

Cost $60K. 3yo gelding first starter out of the Hinchinbrook mare Samiam Seussie. Recent 3rd in a Cranbourne jump-out. Sticky gate but nice race to kick off in.

ILB

3yo by Savabeel having first race start for Trent Busuttin And Natalie Young. Betting as a guide.

New Zealander bred; his stable gets plenty of debutant winners; gelded already; sire gets his share of decent sorts; he has a shout with signs of encouragement in profile.

Indicated early potential. Rode the speed and went down in head-bobber at Avoca. Has a big say here.

ILB

Missed by a narrow margin last time at Avoca. Should come to hand quickly. Looking sharp on the track since returning from a spell. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Shown recent signs of improvement; favourite and just came up short at Avoca over 6½f (maiden) two weeks ago.

RSIS

Right in the mix last start at Avoca. Won't be far away during the run. Producing consistent results since returning from a break. Betting is the best guide.

On a short back-up. Form spaced and boasts just a 4th from a handful of runs. Settled close but dropped right out at Sale second-up. Leaning towards others here.

ILB

On a quick back up. Jumped at $151.00 and lost ground in the run home when 12th last run at Sale on a heavy track. Not threatening these.

Last of 12 at Sale last Sunday (wore blinkers).

RSIS

On a short turnaround. Was 150/1 and well beaten when 12th last start at Sale. Likely to be well placed early.

Returns for second campaign (41-weeks). A long way off them at Cranbourne on debut as an outsider. Given more time but will need to step up. Prefer to see.

ILB

Back from a 41 week spell. Was $41.00 and gave away some ground when 9th last start at Cranbourne but was a debutant last start. Suggest watching.

Comfortably beaten first time out (Cranbourne, 6½f) at 40-1 in January; could be more streetwise here; returns from an absence here.

RSIS

Back after break of 41 weeks. Odds of 40/1 and couldn't stay in touch when 9th last start at Cranbourne but was on debut last time.

Second campaign (20-weeks). Disappointing debut performance at Bairnsdale 12 Jun. Would need to improve from there and hard to entertain without a market push.

ILB

Had a break from racing and returns to competition. At $151.00 below expectations when 8th last run at Bairnsdale but having second career run. Looks completely outclassed.

Finished eighth of ten on his debut at Bairnsdale at 150-1 five months ago; room for improvement; returns from a break here.

RSIS

First run back from a break. Odds of 150/1 and not up to scratch when 8th last start at Bairnsdale but fitter for debut run.

Never in the call at Mornington at second appearance. Better for race experience and open to progression.

ILB

Was $31.00 and ordinary performance when 6th last start at Mornington. Won't find this easy.

Missed the frame (beaten 8l into sixth) over 6f at Mornington (maiden) last Thursday.

RSIS

Started at 30/1 and was nothing special when 6th last run at Mornington.
