GUSTO (8) has struggled for best form recently, last time finishing 5th (28.85) in a Grade 5 H NP at Bendigo. Has won here at this journey. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. SHINY NEW TOY (3) filled a minor placing last start at Geelong behind Zoom Boom (23.51) in a Grade 5. Turned chasing the leaders but kept coming. Winning chance. UPTIGHT (5) took the sit on the lead from a low draw but levelled up and ran away to win (30.14) at Sandown in Grade 5 NP over 515m. Capable of going well again. VELOX BALE (6) should be thereabouts.
