MAJORS CREEK (4) is close to a win after back-to-back placings, coming from a wider barrier to miss by just a nose last time at Kilmore. Nicely placed to go one better. FESTINALENTE (1) is racing well having recorded back-to-back placings before racing parked and working when midfield last time. Should enjoy the favours from the inside draw so has winning claims. OUR TRUE COLOURS (5) wasn't too far away last time to follow back-to-back wins from the second row, one of them here. Must rate highly. CELESTIAL ZODIAC (8) strikes at 50 per cent at this distance and draws for a nice trail.
