AAP

Resuming (13-weeks). Could give some cheek at odds fresh in this affair.

ILB

Resuming. Odds of $11.00 and tailed off to finish 8th last start at Wangaratta. Not without a chance.

RP

Finished behind I'm Dynamite when beaten 14l (eighth of nine, Wangaratta) three months ago; has shown glimpses of ability recently and should prove competitive.

RSIS

First run back from a break. At 10/1 lost ground in the run home when 8th last run at Wangaratta on a heavy rated track. Keep safe.

AAP

Raced in back half and was never in a position to mount a serious challenge at Mornington. Very fit, could get into the placings.

ILB

At $17.00 faded away to finish 8th last start at Mornington but will try to take advantage of the alley. Has some claims.

RP

Fair effort when beaten 4½l, finishing eighth of ten over 6f at Mornington (handicap) last week; much respected based on the pick of his form.

RSIS

At 16/1 weakened to finish 8th last time at Mornington but will try to take advantage of the stall. Could feature here.

Comments

AAP

Made limited headway at Moe. Fitter second-up. Shapes as a major player.

ILB

Was $6.50 and closed off nicely when 4th last run at Moe. Definite winning chance.

RP

Not beaten that far over 6f at Moe (handicap) 13 days ago; makes limited appeal.

RSIS

Odds of 11/2 and edged past some when finishing 4th last time at Moe. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Comments

AAP

There to threaten just couldn't quite finish it off at Bendigo. Outer barrier but has good gate speed. Deep into his campaign, can make his presence felt if things pan out.

ILB

Odds of $5.50 and faded away when 4th last time at Bendigo. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Gets a chance against these.

RP

Far from disgraced (beaten just under 2l) at Bendigo two weeks ago; should get involved as recent form is thin on the ground in this contest and his latest effort was promising.

RSIS

Was 9/2 and overrun when 4th last time at Bendigo. The wide stall shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early pace. Very capable of taking this out.

Resuming (14-weeks). Blew the cobwebs away in recent trial. Awkwardly drawn for return. May need this.

ILB

Back after a break. Started $41.00 and couldn't stay in touch when 11th last time at Murtoa. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Making up the numbers.

RP

Last of 11 at Murtoa over 1m (handicap) in July; others more likely.

RSIS

Resuming. Started at 40/1 and looked outclassed when 11th last run at Murtoa. Has the early pace to burn across from the wide draw.

Ran on okay without troubling at Kilmore. Looks up against it.

ILB

At $26.00 overtook some late when 4th last time at Kilmore. Prefer in a much weaker race.

RP

Creditable effort to finish fourth, beaten just under 3l upped to this trip at Kilmore 18 days ago; struggled a bit since winning a handicap at Werribee in May.

RSIS

Odds of 25/1 and advanced late into 4th last start at Kilmore.

AAP

Bairnsdale 3yo+ Hcp (56) placegetter 20 Sep. On pace but folded up quickly at Moe. Good gate speed, soft draw. Deep into his campaign, not out of this.

ILB

Odds of $8.50 and weakened under pressure when 9th last start at Moe. Likely to be well placed early. Betting is the best guide.

RP

Held in ninth at Moe over 6f (handicap) two weeks ago; boasts winning form over C&D; does not win very often; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

RSIS

Started 15/2 and faded to finish 9th last run at Moe. Should muster plenty of early toe. Has some claims.

Comments

AAP

On a short back-up. Settled back and didn't come on at Yarra Glen first up. Others more persuasive.

ILB

On a short turnaround. Started at $12.00 and weakened to finish 10th last start at Yarra Valley. The large claim from Liana Wood should help. Will need to find a few more lengths.

RP

Subpar since successful in a handicap at Moe in February; finished last of ten over 6f at Yarra Glen (handicap) last Saturday; others are preferred.

RSIS

Backing up quickly. At 11/1 weakened under pressure when 10th last start at Yarra Vstall. Large claim helps.

AAP

On a quick back-up. All honours in the small field at Alexandra. Previous run makes him very hard to beat here.

ILB

Backs up quickly. Won easily by 3 1/2L last run at Alexandra and getting better in recent performances. In strong racing shape this campaign. Respect the betting.

RP

Was well on top at the line over 6½f at Alexandra (handicap) a week ago; has a chance.

RSIS

On a short turnaround. Put a gap on the rest when winning by a margin of 3 1/2L last start at Alexandra and form has been improving over recent runs. Respect the betting.

AAP

Now 5 weeks between runs. Well back and never sighted at Bairnsdale at double-figure odds. Others with more appeal.

ILB

Started $19.00 and faded to finish 11th last time at Bairnsdale but has drawn to do little work. Capable type.

RP

Finished last of 11 at Bairnsdale over 1m (handicap) dropped back in distance last month.

RSIS

At 18/1 didn't threaten when 11th last time at Bairnsdale but has minimal work to do from the stall. Represents value in this race.

AAP

On a quick back-up. Seasoned performer. Failed to threaten on a soft deck at Sale at longer odds. Best viewed as a rough place hope.

ILB

On a quick back up. Was $31.00 and looked outclassed when 9th last start at Sale on a heavy rated track but competing in an easier class. Not at all out of this race.

RP

Found life tough when 8l back in ninth over 1m at Sale (handicap) last week.

RSIS

On a short back up. Started 30/1 and couldn't stay in touch when 9th last start at Sale on a heavy track but drops back to a suitable class. Watch for a sign in the market.

AAP

On a short back-up. Found it tough since shaking his maiden. Failed to threaten (wide barrier) on a soft deck at Sale as a despised outsider. Needs to lift to figure. On trust.

ILB

Backing up quickly. At $101.00 lost ground in the run home when 10th last run at Sale on a heavy surface but up against a less challenging field. Peak required to upset this field.

RP

Useful in this grade; finished just behind Grand Sage when last at Sale over 1m (handicap) on Sunday.

RSIS

Racing on a quick back up. Odds of 100/1 and didn't find the line when 10th last start at Sale on a heavy surface but challenged by weaker competitors.
