The step up to 1800m looks suitable based on her finishing efforts, and she gets in with a light weight of 56kg. Drawn to get a good position midfield and should be strong late with the moderate-fast tempo.

The natural progression to 1800m should suit based on his finishing effort. Trainer Lucinda Boyd takes the ride herself which is a positive sign. Drawn a bit awkwardly in barrier 9 but has the tactical speed to find a position.
Montana Rose brings the most experience to this race with 20 starts and has been consistent without winning. Gets the perfect draw in barrier 1 and should get every chance from there. The step up to 1800m looks suitable based on her staying on efforts.
The addition of winkers for the first time could be the gear change needed to sharpen him up. Drawn midfield in barrier 5 and should get a good run with the moderate-fast tempo.

Eureka Concrete Mdn Plate
Has placed in 3 of his last 5 starts and should appreciate the very fast tempo predicted. The Good 4 surface suits based on his record.
Her second placing three starts back on a soft track shows ability, but her first-up record (0 from 2) and unproven record on good tracks are concerns. The very fast tempo should suit her running style from midfield.
Foremmakate returns from a lengthy spell with a stable change to Robert Hickmott and the addition of a tongue tie. The advantageous barrier draw will help, but the lack of exposed form makes her somewhat of an unknown quantity.
While he's yet to win from 12 starts and carries top weight, the very fast tempo predicted should suit his running style. His experience and occasional ability to hit the frame make him an interesting longshot.

Mt Misery Sand & Soil Mdn Plate
Eden Rose represents a standout in this field, dropping dramatically in class from Group/Listed races to a country maiden. The barrier draw is perfect for her running style, and the addition of winkers should help her focus. This represents her best winning opportunity to date.
Shay's Way brings strong first-up credentials with two second placings from two fresh runs. Her overall record shows consistency with 3 seconds and 2 thirds from 7 starts. While yet to break through for a win, she has the ability to run on strongly and should benefit from the predicted fast tempo. First-up since September but has shown she can perform fresh.
Immortal Justice brings consistent form to this race with 1 second and 2 thirds from 8 starts. The removal of ear muffs for the first time could sharpen her up, and she should be competitive in this field. Likely to settle midfield and run on.
As one of the likely leaders in a race with fast tempo, he could control proceedings if allowed to dictate.

Grow Better Garden Products Mdn Plate
Cincincity brings the strongest and most consistent form to this race with 5 placings from 8 starts. Maps to get a perfect midfield position with the expected fast tempo and should be finishing strongly. Clearly the one to beat.
Costalotta brings solid form with two seconds from five starts. She's second-up from a spell after a fair first-up run and has drawn the inside barrier which should give her options. Will get back and be running on strongly with the fast tempo predicted. Definite place chance.
Licentious drops significantly in class from metropolitan racing at Sandown. Second-up now and the addition of blinkers could see sharp improvement. The So You Think filly gets in with just 54kg and should appreciate the fast tempo. Has upside but needs to improve on what she's shown so far.
Her third two starts back was solid and she's drawn well in barrier 2.

McKinnon Seed Cleaning (Bm52)
Spinhof returns to the scene of his previous success, having won over this track and distance last year. The drop in class is significant, and his strong record on good tracks (4-4-1 from 23 starts) suggests conditions will suit perfectly.
Paint Me Red brings solid consistent form into this race and maps to get the perfect run from barrier 2. His second-up record is strong with 3 placings from 8 attempts, and he's dropping in class from his last start.
Gold Governor is dropping significantly in class after racing in stronger company. He maps to lead or sit prominent from barrier 1 and should appreciate the good track conditions.

Bet365 Position Payout (Bm62)
Shooter Mcgavin brings solid credentials with a strong 2nd last start at Ararat. While he failed last time at Terang, he has a consistent record with 4 wins and 9 placings from 26 starts. Maps to get a perfect midfield position in what should be a fast-tempo race, which suits his running style. The compressed weight scale means his 59kg is not a significant disadvantage. Expect him to be finishing strongly.
Where's Poppy brings strong credentials with proven ability at this distance (2-3-2 from 9 starts). His last start 2nd at Donald over this trip was impressive, and he's dropping slightly in class. The 31-day freshen-up is a slight concern, but he's an experienced campaigner who should handle the conditions. Maps to settle midfield and should be strong late in a race with predicted fast tempo.
Though lightly raced with just 3 starts, he's shown ability with a maiden win and two 4th placings. The significant class rise is a concern, as is carrying top weight, but his raw ability and early speed give him claims. May be vulnerable late if the pace is too hot, which is predicted in this race.
Legacy Rose offers value as a previous winner at this track and distance. Her 3rd placing two starts back at Kyneton showed she retains ability, and the return to a shorter trip should suit after failing over 2000m last start. The gear change (nose roll off) could spark improvement, and her versatility is a plus.

Pacific Fuel Solutions Burrumbeet Cup (Bm78)
Friday At Five brings the strongest combination of proven course form and current condition. The mare won over this track and distance last year and gets significant weight relief today. Her recent form has been solid with a respectable 5th at Terang just 17 days ago. Maps to get a perfect midfield position and should be strong through the line with Neil Farley aboard who won on her last time at this track.
Proprietary comes off a strong 2nd placing at Naracoorte just 5 days ago. The quick backup should have him at peak fitness, and he draws the perfect barrier to utilize his tactical speed. While this is a class rise, his recent form suggests he's ready for the challenge. His 3rd placing in this race last year shows he can handle the track and distance. Lucinda Boyd takes the ride.
His 4th placing at Caulfield Heath last start was solid, and he should appreciate the return to country grade. Will likely lead or sit on pace from barrier 2 and has proven ability to carry weight. Good track specialist who should appreciate conditions but needs to overcome the top weight.
Despite poor recent form, he has a strong record at this track and distance, finishing 2nd in this race last year. His overall distance record is solid with 2 wins and 2 placings from 9 starts. While recent form is concerning, the return to a track and distance he performs well at could spark improvement.

Windermere Oilseeds (Bm52)
Bokeem brings the strongest recent form with a 2nd place finish at Kerang just 6 days ago. He drops significantly in class here and has a solid record at the 1000m distance with 2 wins and 2 placings from 13 attempts. Likely to push forward from barrier 4 and should be able to establish a position on speed. The weight is a concern but his class edge compensates.
She's been racing consistently in higher class races and drops back to a more suitable level here. While the wide barrier is a concern, her versatile racing pattern should allow her to find a good position. The mare has shown enough ability to suggest she can be competitive in this grade, though her win strike rate is a concern.
Age is a concern but his recent performances indicate he still has plenty to offer. The very fast tempo should suit his running style.
The mare is well-weighted at 54kg and should appreciate the very fast tempo predicted for this race. The wide barrier is a concern, but she has shown the ability to overcome difficult draws in the past. Her low win strike rate is a negative, but she often runs well without winning.
