1. Bloomin' Crafty | Short back-up of four days. Ran eight lengths back from the winner last start at Warrnambool. Not the worst. |
2. Chilli Bean | Amongst the placegetters last start running second at Kyneton when first up. One for wider exotics. |
3. Cokum Gift | Finished fifth at only start at Horsham. Cannot entertain. |
4. Grand Final | Back from 25 week spell. Winning chance. |
5. Candy Puzzle | Back after 24 week break and resumes well running third at Sale when last first-up. Should be near the speed in a race without much early pace. Solid claims. |
6. Mallee Hammer | Placed last start at Echuca when resuming. Expected to settle off the speed. Leading hope. |
7. Fiery Dancer | First-up after 22 week spell and finished eighth at Pakenham Park on debut. Sneaky chance. |
