JACKTAVERN NICKY (6) stuck on well last time to finish 1.75 lengths back in third (28.12) at this track in an A8 over 450m. Has performed well from this box with a win and seven minor placings to her name from 13 starts. Well placed and gets her chance. MALLOGS GRACIE (3) shows ability but remains a maiden after eight starts. Was below best last time when missed the frame finishing sixth (28.39) at this track. Likely to play a prominent role. CROKERS DEREK (1) settled back off the inside but went through his gears strongly to find the frame with a 2 length third (28.45) at this track in A8. The form out of his last race has been franked. Likely to be in the finish again. EXTENDED DREAMS (2) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.
