UPWARD SCOOBY (5) has found the minor placings here at last couple of runs, finishing third last time beaten 6 lengths (28.01). Yet to win here but has run some good races including four placings. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings five times from 10 attempts. Good form should continue. EVIESTEEL HOPE (6) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 450m behind Westforth Boyo (28.13) in a HCP. Scored at her previous run. Has ability and can measure up. JOANNES HOPE (3) has some solid form under her belt and proved too classy last time to win by one length at this track in a handy 27.96 beating Bay City Phoenix. Has definite claims. KILBANNON OISIN (1) will have admirers again after placing from the same draw last time out.
