Linton Chataway (Betfair)
Kembla Grange R4 No. 1 - Good Once (rated at $8)
Has had two wet track runs to begin the prep and although still a maiden appears could be better on a good track. Further both jockey and trainer are striking poorly at the moment at just 4% their last 50 rides and runners.

Mitch Lewis (Betfair)
Pakenham R2 No. 4 - Grinzinger Angel (rated at $5.50)
GRINZINGER ANGEL had genuine issues in her last start before a spell but I don't think she gets the easiest race to return in here today. Runners with speed are drawn under her, so she potentially could get caught wide and have to endure a tough run. Off the spell with only one public jumpout, I'm happy to take her on and perhaps follow her going forwards after this run, but feel she might be vulnerable 1st up.

James Lamb (Punters)
Pakenham R4 No. 7 - Grey Ice @ $3.80
Grey Ice was just okay running 3rd over 1400m at Sandown Hillside last start, finishing 2L from Grid Girl who was first-up in Australia. The rise to the mile may help her cause but Thoughtful Woman and Finale should both be able to outsprint her in the small field where the tempo looks only muddling on paper.
