The beneficiary of a huge Grade drop now, FERNANDO'S GLORY (7) is the obvious benchmark here. She was blitzed behind the brilliant She's A Pearl in a FFA here last Wed: but owns 2 very fast 29.7 wins here. That's too quick for these. OLD MATE KOBY (2) bolted home here on Fri: recording his 5th WP win. BAROOGA FRANKY (5) handy 3rd at WP debut, Wed.

Comment:Is a 5-time WP winner: but whether he is as good now? Minor placed both runs back from a spell - yet well held. Ran on OK in 3rd here Wed. Softer draw assists.

Comment:Another who has won 5 here - notching that tally, with a strong 30.15 in easier class, Friday. Atoned for his luckless run prior, when bombed the jump. Danger.

Comment:Went around in a depleted 5-dog field here last Wed - flooding home late to grab 2nd (1.5L) in 30.12. Lack of early pace was concerning: long way off, initially

Comment:Was 1st-up from a spell and fancied here last week ($4.80) - but clearly outpaced in a battling 4th in 30.05. Strips fitter: but this race has a lot more depth.
