BACK RUBY (1) comes off an average effort last start when fifth at this track over 400m behind Austin Texas (23.99) in a Grade 7. Was in the money the start prior. Has ability and can bounce back. PAYTON'S PEARL (2) turned in a modest effort most recently when sixth at Bendigo over 425m behind Highland Jill (25.28) in a Grade 7. Worth following up. DROP AND RUN (7) turned in a moderate run last time when eighth at Warrnambool over 390m behind Zipping Drake (23.61) in a Grade 7. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. THAT'S MY TYPE (8) can play a role in the finish without surprising.
