GUS AND GLORY (4) continues to build a strong record and was the fastest winner on the program last time, running away to score by half a length (18.23) at this track. Fast beginner who should quickly stride to the lead. Hard to go past. HARADA SOLO (1) finished well back at this track last time when a 1.5 lengths fifth (18.69) but scored four back at this track (18.71). Warrants plenty of respect. PAW VERA (2) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (25.09) at Goulburn. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Can measure up this time. LAYLA'S LILLY (3) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.
