2. The Wrangler | First-up after 23 week spell and generally strong first-up winning at Swan Hill last attempt. Has the speed to overcome a very wide draw. Rough claims. |

4. Sunshine Moshe | Got the campaign off to a strong start winning when fresh and narrowly beaten at long odds last start at Kyneton. Claim helps. Can surprise. |
5. Broccobama | Gave nothing else a chance to win last start to break maiden at Wodonga when resuming and draws to do no work. Rates highly with Craig Robertson retaining the ride. Right in this. |
6. Rock My Frock | Ran fifth last start at Bairnsdale and large claim helps. Won once this prep at Benalla three runs back. Look to others. |
7. Roppongi | Has placed in three runs from five this campaign and ran fourth last start at Kyneton. Favourably drawn. Expected to be a contender. |
8. Jet Jackson | Got the campaign off to a strong start winning when fresh and blinkers come off. Has the speed to overcome a very wide draw. Place hope. |
9. Lucky Rockstar | First-up after 20 week spell and generally strong first-up placing at Echuca last attempt. Won last start to break maiden at Benalla. A good chance. |
10. Quiet Lucky | Came on to finish midfield last start at Wagga Wagga when first up and placed in four of four at Benalla before. Up in trip. Should fight out the finish. |
11. Redneck Princess | Finished three lengths off the winner last start at Avoca and has plenty of weight. Should run fitter for two previous outings. Rough claims. |
12. Smokin' Salmon | Faded to finish three lengths off the winner last start at Corowa and has no help from the conditions. Large claim helps but this looks too strong. |
13. Sticking Point | Faded to finish eight lengths off the winner last start at Cranbourne when first up but will come to hand quickly and a winner when last second-up at Kyneton. Commands respect. |
14. Volere | Coming off a win at Wodonga when resuming and two from four wins have been in the dry. Carrying 4kg more than last time. Cannot entertain. |
