ZOUTARA (9) hasn't raced since finishing sixth at Cranbourne over 1000m five-and-a-half weeks ago. Kept ticking over with a placing in a recent trial at Cranbourne. Hard to beat on best form. ELITE PETE (2) settled in a rearwards position and never came on when resuming last start, finishing ninth and beaten 6 lengths over 1105m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. LIGHTNING JOEY (4) was below his best last time when ninth over 1207m at Kilmore, beaten 9 lengths. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. REELNESS (8) stepped out on her debut over 1100m at this track four weeks ago and finished sixth, beaten 3 lengths. Fitter and the blinkers come off. Among the leading chances.
