Above Me brings the strongest recent form into this race with a close 2nd last start at Echuca over this distance. The likely fast tempo should suit her running style, and she maps to get a good position from barrier 4. Dylan Dunn is a positive jockey booking.

Habenaria returns from a spell but has shown ability in her three career starts, including a placing on soft ground. The Freedman stable knows how to prepare a horse first-up, and she's well-bred being by I Am Invincible. Her barrier draw is favorable, and she should get a good run in transit.
The booking of John Allen is significant, and the Malady stable doesn't typically place horses poorly. The wide barrier is a concern, but with the likely fast tempo, she may be able to find a position with cover and finish strongly.
Tatakai Uta is an interesting first-starter from the Mitchell Freedman stable. The addition of a tongue tie first time suggests they're addressing any breathing issues before they become a problem. Jarrod Fry is a quality jockey who rides well for the stable.

Neziha showed significant ability on debut when finishing a close second at Geelong just 18 days ago. Well-drawn in barrier 4 and with Harry Coffey aboard, she maps to get a perfect midfield position in a race with likely fast tempo. Clearly the one to beat.
Pierre Le Quill has been steadily improving, finishing a close second last start at Echuca over 1200m. Despite the wide barrier, the likely fast tempo should suit his backmarker style. Will Gordon stays aboard and this horse represents excellent each-way value.
The McEvoy-trained colt gets the services of top jockey John Allen and draws well in barrier 3. The addition of a tongue tie for the first time could spark improvement. While his form appears to be declining, the drop back to maiden grade and good barrier position give him strong place claims.
Baltic Blizzard is an interesting debutant from the Henry Dwyer stable who has a solid record with first-starters. The engagement of quality jockey Declan Bates is significant, and the middle barrier draw (8) is advantageous according to track bias data. The addition of pre-race ear muffs suggests connections are focusing on a calm preparation.

Black Eyed Blonde brings the strongest form credentials with three seconds and a third from seven starts. The addition of winkers for the first time could be the catalyst for a breakthrough win. Maps to settle midfield and should be strong late.
Trained by Ciaron Maher, he gets the services of experienced jockey Declan Bates. The wide barrier is a concern, but he has the early speed to overcome it. His last start was disappointing, but he can bounce back here.
Pump The Pedals is showing improvement with a 5th then 4th in his two career starts. The booking of Linda Meech is significant, and he should get a nice run from barrier 10 to finish strongly.
She's second-up from a spell with a placing from her only previous second-up run. The addition of blinkers for the first time could spark significant improvement, and the booking of top jockey John Allen is a strong positive. She has experience at this track and distance and should be ready to peak.

Thinking Sensation brings the most consistent recent form to this race with three consecutive placings. The Matthew Cumani-trained gelding has been knocking on the door and the addition of visors first time could provide the focus needed to break through. Should get a good run from barrier 1 and will be suited by the likely fast tempo, allowing him to finish strongly.
The Henry Dwyer-trained mare has shown ability with a second and two thirds from seven starts. Despite the wide barrier, she should be able to get back and run on strongly with the expected fast tempo. Declan Bates takes the ride and should give her every chance to finish in the placings.
The Erin Maher-trained gelding has been consistent without winning and should get a good run from barrier 2. With Rhys McLeod aboard, he should be able to position midfield and finish off strongly with the expected fast tempo.
She has recent experience at this track and distance and draws well in barrier 5.

I'llbethere brings the strongest recent form into this race with an eye-catching second last start at Seymour over 1411m. The Patrick & Michelle Payne-trained gelding has placed in 50% of his starts and appears to be improving with each run. Second-up today, drawn perfectly in barrier 1, and with Will Gordon retaining the ride, he looks primed to break through for a maiden win.
Boncapo showed ability with a strong second placing two starts back at Horsham over 1400m. The Ciaron Maher-trained gelding was disappointing last start but gets the services of Harry Coffey today and draws well in barrier 5. Still learning his craft but has the potential to improve sharply at his third career start and should be in the finish.
Rhooky brings solid form credentials with placings in 2 of his 3 starts. The Symon Wilde-trained gelding finished a creditable third last start at Ararat over the mile and should be improved second-up. With Declan Bates aboard, he maps to settle midfield and will be finishing strongly.
He's been racing consistently of late with a third and fourth from his last two starts.

Donald Motor Lodge (Bm56)
Has a strong record at the distance with one win, one second and two thirds from six attempts. Consistent performer who rarely runs poorly and should get a good run from barrier 8. The weight is a concern but has the class to overcome it.
Chosen Venture comes off a good second placing at Swan Hill just 9 days ago and drops significantly in class here. Strong record at the distance with one win and three seconds from twelve attempts. Consistent performer with 5 wins and 11 placings from 42 starts who should be right in the finish.
Sinister Sauce comes off an impressive first-up win at Traralgon and drops significantly in class here. Has strong form at the distance with one win and three placings from nine attempts. The second-up query is offset by the class drop and recent winning form.
Jotopeli comes off a last-start maiden win at this track and is showing an improving form pattern. Has placed in 4 of his 9 starts and appears to be hitting form at the right time.

Goldacres (Bm56)
Her soft track credentials (1 win from 2 starts) are a significant advantage on today's Soft 6 surface. From barrier 1, she should get an economical run in midfield and with the predicted very fast tempo, her strong finishing burst makes her the standout selection.
Rubiquity brings strong credentials at this distance (1 win, 2 thirds from 3 starts) and has been racing consistently in similar company. While first-up from a spell with an unimpressive fresh record, his barrier draw (3) is advantageous and the predicted fast tempo should suit his running style. Harry Coffey is a positive jockey booking, though his soft track record is a query.
Damas brings an outstanding place record (5 seconds from 9 starts) and maps to be on speed from barrier 2. While first-up from a 201-day spell with a modest fresh record, his consistency is a major asset.
This lightly-raced 3YO has a strong record on soft tracks (1 win, 1 third from 2 starts) which is crucial for today's conditions. Coming off a win 28 days ago, the spacing is ideal, and as a backmarker he'll be suited by the predicted fast tempo. While drawn wide in barrier 14, the track bias favoring backmarkers should mitigate this disadvantage.

Bet365 Bet Boost (Bm56)
Four-year-old mare resuming from a spell with a solid record when fresh (2:0-1-0). Drops significantly in class from her last run in Open company at Caulfield. Has tactical speed to take advantage of barrier 2 and should settle in the first few. The addition of blinkers first time could sharpen her up, and her win two starts back at Kilmore was impressive. Unproven on soft tracks but has the class edge.
Four-year-old gelding with consistent form (8:1-3-1) who should take up the running from barrier 3. Second-up from a spell after a disappointing run as favorite last start, but has strong place credentials. Unproven on soft tracks but has tactical speed to overcome.
Six-year-old gelding dropping in class after a solid 3rd placing in BM66 grade last start at this track. Has a consistent record overall (30:4-3-4) and has placed at this track and distance previously. Drawn well in barrier 4 and should get a good run in transit. Carrying top weight of 61kg is the main concern, but the class drop compensates.
Lightly-raced five-year-old mare coming off an impressive maiden win at Dunkeld on a soft track. Now second-up from a spell with a good record in this pattern (1:0-1-0). The class rise from maiden to BM56 is significant, but she's progressive and could have more upside than most.

Sugar And Sweet brings solid recent form with placings in his last two starts and drops in class here. Has a proven record at this track with a win and a placing from four attempts. The fast tempo predicted should suit his running style, and he's proven adaptable across various track conditions.
Asawin returns from a spell for the Archie Alexander stable and has shown ability when fresh with a win from three first-up attempts. He's dropping in class from his previous preparation and has a consistent record with 2 wins and 8 placings from 18 starts. The barrier draw should allow him to settle in a good position midfield, though his lack of experience on soft tracks is a slight concern.
She's been consistent in recent starts with a second placing two runs back at Mildura. The barrier draw should allow her to settle in a good position, though her lack of experience on soft tracks is a concern.
He has a solid record at this track with two seconds and a third from five attempts. The experienced John Allen takes the ride, and he's dropping in class from his previous starts.
