PFG AUSTRALIA TROT 2200m Track: GOOD Clear (Max: 15) |

JUST ABIT DUSTY (12) has had little go to plan in two starts in stronger company since winning from this row the last time he raced at this circuit. Drops back to that same class and with even luck could return to the winners' list. MANDA KYVALLEY (11) has made mistakes in recent outings but was going well earlier in the campaign including an easy win from this row at Melton. Up to this with manners. JESSICAS STORY (6) draws wider but is in contention after scoring last start by a nose at this venue and distance. BOUTIKA (9) is heading the right way, last time out finishing third from this row at Maryborough.
