WHATELEY (2) is coming along nicely, beaten as favourite first up at Caulfield Heath, atoning with a solid maiden win over this route last time out as a $1.90 shot. Can continue to improve and will take catching again. FABRICE (1) is knocking on the door with three consecutive minor placings, beaten half a length in a Class 3 at Echuca last time out. Should be right there. STEADFAST (5) is coming off a dominant maiden win at Mornington as a $1.40 favourite, scoring by 2.25 lengths. Maps well here and can win again. LAVA DELTA (7) is also off a Mornington maiden win and has claims. SHEZASMOKEY (3) resumes and can figure.
