JACKTAVERN JAX (3) has a strong record this track and trip with five wins and four placings from 14 starts. Was out of the placings last time (29.60) at this track in a HCP, finishing fourth and beaten 3.5 lengths. Looks suited and should go close. A BIT OF MAUR (6) settled down midfield and held her position to the line when finishing 5th (29.38) at this track. Returns to favourable track. Deserves plenty of respect. ROSSTEMPLE SNOW (4) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths, in an A6 at this track over 480m (29.78). Tackles a handicap and has a 5m start on the scratch dog. Don't rule him out. EMERS CIAN (2) followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound second, beaten 2 lengths, last start in a D4 at this track over 290m (17.58). Returns to the handicaps here and will be starting 7m from the scratch dog. Don't rule him out.
