Heading the field is Queen Elida who is back from a let-up but looks beautifully placed having mixed it with the best of the males all prep.

She was last seen when fourth in the Great Southern Star Final while her other achievements this campaign include a win in a heat and a placing in the final of the Inter Dominion series.

She loves the 2240m distance winning 10 of 18 attempts and with a recent trial under the belt should be fit enough to go close.

Main rival Sleepee will have a fitness edge though and she is racing well, twice finishing runner up including the G2 Knight Pistol before leading to land the G2 Breed For Speed Gold Series Final here last start.

She draws one spot inside Queen Elida and that sees her as a big danger.

Keayang Livana chased Sleepee home when runner up in the Breed For Speed, adding to a string of top-four finishes.

Her consistency is hard to knock and she is drawn to play a role while Ofortuna was forced to work last start but won here two back and does have an Inter Dominion heat win under the belt.

BEST BETS:

Menangle Saturday Race 1 #1 Titian Raider @ $4.00 – fitter for the fresh placing and is two-time second-up winner with a good record here. Gets his chance from the ace draw.

Melton Saturday Race 7 #12 Giveitatry @ $11.00 – Tough draw but flies fresh and has been readied with three trials so looks a hope at each way odds.
