| 1 |  | 466436 | Clouding Over | 1 | Ft | Maurice McKendry | Another decent shift last week over the sprint trip. Also consider for first 4s. |
| 2 |  | 354278 | Allets | 2 | Ft | Jacob Dunn(J) | Lacked dash over this trip from the ace, 15 Aug. Capable but needs improvement. |
| 3 |  | 54X | Miki Doo | 3 | Ft | Harrison Orange(J) | Midfield trial position, 12 Aug after a long stint away. Watch market moves here |
| 4 |  | 463052 | Bruntwood Brigade | 4 | Ft | Tony Herlihy | Just denied from the trail last week and must be considered on an each-way basis |
| 5 |  | 132724 | Tyson | 5 | Ft | Peter Ferguson | Denied room a week ago here after gallant 2nd. Tough type and looks a nice bet. |
| 6 |  | 132457 | Franco Salah | 6 | Ft | Tony Cameron | Racing with purpose and although drawn out can offer value to exotics tonight. |
| 7 | | 209X2 | The Night Agent | 7 | Ft | Zachary Butcher | Just thwarted resuming, 15 Aug. Wide draw may not stop him going one better. |

| 6 |  | 21P21 | Mad Mary | 3 | 10 | Crystal Hackett(J) | Too strong a fortnight ago and looks a progressive type. Shouldn't be far away. |
| 7 | | 1631 | Manchester's Moment | 4 | 10 | Todd Mitchell | Defeated Sanapazienza when last here back in July. One of the main dangers again |
| 8 |  | 134631 | Westar Milly | 1 | 20 | Zachary Butcher | Got it done nicely from the trail 2 weeks ago over longer trip. Place from mark. |
| 9 |  | 352922 | Bolt For The Hill | U1 | 20 | Stephanie Burley(J) | Big effort for 2nd last week & with a clean gait should finally gain his reward. |
