SELECTIONS: VANCE LANE (9), ZOOLU (7), NOSTRA NIPOTINA (11), LIFE ON THE HILL (2)

OVERVIEW: VANCE LANE (9) is a smart trotter when he is able to put it altogether and will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment. He endured a tough run when fourth in the Gavin Lang Trot then followed with a fifth in the Bob Conroy Classic at Melton. ZOOLU (7) finished off best via the sprint lane and scored comfortably over RAPTA (4) at her debut performance. She faces a negative swing in the barrier draw but is worth thought again. NOSTRA NIPOTINA (11) is improving with every start and was runner up behind the handy performer I Choose You at Melton on August 22 so she is not without a chance. LIFE ON THE HILL (2) finished fifth in the Nutrien Classic at Melton last outing and is likely to find this assignment to be easier.

EARLY SPEED: 5 (likely early leader), 4,6

RATINGS: 9/ 7,11/ 2,4,10/ FIELD
