The Terry Evans-trained Chaos will be chasing his second career win when the son of Volksraad contests the Tribute To Dick Hillard Class 3 Handicap (1900m).
Despite the lack of a recent win the form of Chaos looks superior to his rivals.
Chaos finished second in four consecutive races including a close second to Fly Till Dawn at Gosford on October 15 carrying 58.5kg in benchmark 60 company before finishing out of the placings at the Newcastle-Beaumont track last time but was still less than four-lengths from the winner Hilarious Honour.
Chaos opposes a field with a combined winning strike rate of 7 per cent so he is not alone with the lack of winning form.
Chaos drops considerably in field strength on Thursday and does looks a strong chance.
If you are a pessimist then one win from 19 starts is cause for concern.
The optimist would say one win in 19 starts suggest he is overdue for a win.
Today I am an optimist and Chaos does looks a strong chance.
