On a short back-up. Warrnambool 3yo+ Mdn Hwt placegetter 29 Oct. Started $7 when safely held in Maiden company at Hamilton over this trip. Can find a few lengths in this line-up.

ILB

On a quick back up. Started at $7.00 and finished 8th last run at Hamilton but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Definitely worth considering.

Best form so far in last two starts but form has an uneven look to it; eighth of 13 beaten 7l at Hamilton on Monday; this is competitive and not easy to fancy.

RSIS

Backs up quickly. Started 6/1 and finished 8th last run at Hamilton but can save some energy from the stall. Must be considered here.

AAP

Fair way from the winner but battled home into third at Gawler. Sound claims.

ILB

Outgunned at the finish when 3rd beaten by almost 9L last start at Gawler. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Solid chance.

Best form so far in last two starts; beaten 9l in third over 1m½f at Gawler (maiden) last Thursday; others more persuasive.

RSIS

Big effort to place 3rd last run at Gawler. Should be going forward early. Definite claims for punters.

Last at turn, ran on late at Swan Hill at second outing. Suited by the longer assignment now. All the better, not out of it.

ILB

Was $7.00 and hit the line well when 4th last run at Swan Hill and rising in distance. Prefer in something easier.

Finished fourth but only beaten 2½l at Swan Hill over 1m (maiden) 19 days ago; should be thereabouts.

RSIS

Odds of 6/1 and overtook some late when 4th last time at Swan Hill and going up in distance.

Sound on debut at Mt Gambier 7 Oct. Settled back and didn't figure at second start in the 3yo+ Mdn Hwt at Warrnambool. Looks more a place prospect.

ILB

Jumped at $12.00 and lacklustre showing when 7th last start at Warrnambool. Likely to get back in the run. Very difficult to back.

Behind Alltogethernow at Warrnambool when beaten 6l last month upped to 1m2f; others are preferred.

RSIS

Was 11/1 and ordinary when 7th last run at Warrnambool. Gets back and needs luck.

Ridden cold and never in the picture at Morphettville for new trainer. Building fitness. Capable of making an impact.

ILB

Started $12.00 and below par when 9th last start at Morphettville but returns to an increased distance. Still in maiden grade after 13 starts. Entitled to be a big price.

Beaten 8l (ninth) over 1m at Morphettville (maiden) 12 days ago on debut for this trainer; facing a testing assignment and one to tread carefully with.

RSIS

At 11/1 lacklustre showing when 9th last run at Morphettville but back over more ground. Still in maiden grade after 13 runs.

AAP

Failed to threaten at Geelong over this trip at wide odds. Only for the minors here.

ILB

Couldn't stay in touch when 10th last time at Geelong but going down in grade. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Respect the betting.

Finished towards the rear of 13 in a Listed race at Geelong three weeks ago; seems to be improving based on last two runs; ought to give it a shot despite defeat last time as was second two runs back and lower class is a plus.

RSIS

Folded up in the straight when 10th last start at Geelong but up against a less challenging field. Should muster plenty of early toe. Respect the betting.

Average performance in small field in choppy conditions at Ballarat at second appearance. Quickly up in trip. Really needs to raise his game.

ILB

Jumped at $151.00 and underperformed when 6th last time at Ballarat but stepping up in trip. Blinkers go on for the first time. Gets back and needs luck. Tough ask.

Could not manage better than sixth over 1m at Ballarat (maiden) 13 days ago; tried in headgear but has some questions to answer.

RSIS

Started at 150/1 and well beaten when 6th last run at Ballarat but racing over a longer distance. Blinkers go on for the first time.

Outgunned but did enough for third at $18 at Mortlake second-up. Significantly up in distance. Not fancied.

ILB

Rattled home nicely into 3rd beaten by 5 3/4L last time at Mortlake and facing a rise in trip. Interesting to see the winkers go off for the first time. Looking elsewhere.

Appears to be going forwards; comfortably beaten finishing third over 1m at Mortlake (maiden) two weeks ago; warrants respect.

RSIS

Kept traping on when 3rd beaten by 5 3/4L last run at Mortlake and going over extra ground. Interesting to see the cheekpieces go off for the first time.

Backing up quickly. A win looks close. Gave a good sight making the frame at Hamilton over today's trip when fancied. Rates highly in this affair.

ILB

On a quick turnaround. Nice run when 2nd last run at Hamilton. Strong claims in this.

Producing consistent form and has displayed improved form on last two starts; had three of these behind when runner-up (sent off 12-5) at Hamilton last week; has to be feared if reproducing most recent effort.

RSIS

On a quick turnaround. Did well when 2nd last time at Hamilton. Can measure up against these.

Fresh. Form reads well for this. Issued decent challenge 3yo+ Mdn Plate at Ballarat over longer assignment. Right in this.

ILB

Made considerable ground when 2nd last run at Ballarat and has a good draw. Racing consistently since returning from a break. Has the ratings to win this.

Has raised her game the last twice; went down by three-quarters of a length over 1m5f at Ballarat (maiden) five weeks ago; been struggling to get her head in front recently so looks risky.

RSIS

Managed to run into 2nd beaten by 3/4L last start at Ballarat and will try to take advantage of the stall. Putting up notable efforts since resuming from a break. Will attract plenty of interest.

AAP

Backing up quickly. Has generally struggled to make an impression. Failed to flatter at Hamilton over this distance. Others with stronger claims.

ILB

Backing up quickly for this race. Jumped at $31.00 and not up to scratch when 9th last start at Hamilton. Displays good tactical speed. Leaving right out.

No impression when ninth of 13 (Hamilton) upped to this distance six days ago; needs to improve on balance of recent form; meeting some horses in good form and easy to oppose.

RSIS

Backing up quickly. Started 30/1 and only fair when 9th last time at Hamilton. Has good tactical pace and will be nicely positioned. Unplaced in career.

AAP

Backing up quickly. On pace but found little at the business end at Hamilton over this trip. Place preferred option.

ILB

Backing up quickly. At $7.00 came in 5th last run at Hamilton. Has plenty of early speed. Hasn't broken through maiden grade after 10 starts. Very minor chance.

Held in fifth at Hamilton last Monday; shown recent signs of improvement; meeting some horses in good form and has some questions to answer.

RSIS

On a short turnaround. Started at 6/1 and ran 5th last run at Hamilton. Expecting to settle positively. A 10 start maiden.

AAP

Started $18 when safely held in Maiden company at Wangaratta. New to Donald. Others with more appeal.

ILB

Was $18.00 and tailed off to finish 9th last start at Wangaratta. Should muster plenty of early speed. Long shot.

Ninth of 12 last month at Wangaratta upped to 1m2f; may have to settle for supporting role as this is a fairly competitive event.

RSIS

Started 17/1 and faded away to finish 9th last time at Wangaratta. Should race on the pace.

AAP

Started $13 when safely held in Maiden company at Wycheproof. Has his first look at 2200m here. Hard to make a case.

ILB

Was $13.00 and disappointing run when 6th last start at Wycheproof. Has the necessary speed to mitigate the wide draw. Hard to have.

Finished just behind Eminent Ella when sixth (Wycheproof) last month upped to 1m1f.

RSIS

Started 12/1 and just average when 6th last run at Wycheproof. Should be rolling forward early from the wide stall.

Odds correct as at Sun 15 Nov, 2:00 am AEDT. Odds can change.
