WITHOUT A TRACE (1) scored two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 7 length 5th at The Meadows (31.18). Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. PAW ULTRA (8) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when eighth at The Meadows over 525m behind Fled The Scene (31.62) in a Grade 5. Placed at his previous run. One of the main contenders. DUPLICITOUS (5) broke a string of placings finishing in the money three on end before a last start fifth (38.17) at Warrnambool. Has a good record at this journey. The form out of last race has been strong. Great chance to atone. WHODAT DUCHESS (2) will give backers a sight.
