The fleet-footed PRECIOUS SOCKS (5) has returned in good order, leading into the straight at both appearances this prep only to find one better in 1100m races. Back a little in trip today which suits. Should control the race and will be very hard to peg back. GREAT BOULDER (1) showed little early pace when resuming last start over this course and distance before making some late ground to grab fourth. Capable of a better run with added fitness today. PSYCHOKINESIS (6) is back for a second campaign after placing three from six in the maiden prep. Probably needs a bit further but is sure to be running on well. ON THE RECORD (3) first up with blinkers on might be the big improver out of the Freedman yard. Solid early support suggests she might turn the corner. That looks the race, with SANS WHISPER (2) best of the others.

MOON YANCO (7) made it three minor placings from as many runs this prep when she was out-sprinted but kept trying and finished third over 1000m here three weeks ago. Looking for this trip now. Rock-hard fit and bursting to win one. LUMIN (6) has registered similar figures at her first two starts, most recently leading to the 100m mark before being swamped and finishing fifth over 1300m at Bendigo. Coming back to 1200m looks a good move. Doesn't need to improve that much to take this out. WIND DREAMER (10) is back from a 24-week break. Opened last prep with a strong second over this trip at Cranbourne. Definite contender. PALATIAL PRINCE (3) last appeared 21 weeks ago when runner-up over 1300m at Ararat after leading. Showed plenty of ability in the maiden campaign and from gate one is a serious chance. CARMEN LUCIA (5) is back from a serious injury. Has plenty of ability and is prominent in early betting. Must be respected.

HAESTA (8) got too far back on the tight Warracknabeal circuit last start before making late inroads to finish fourth over this distance. Very fit after three runs back and the engagement of John Allen is a positive move. Can improve enough to take this out. THE PHILOSOPHISER (2) was in the market on debut and did a good job to come from last in a small field to finish third over 1100m at this circuit a fortnight ago. Nicely-placed over the extra 100m and with that race experience on board looms as a big danger. DISAPPEARANCE (4) is an Invincible Spirit mare on debut for the Dabernig stable. Watch the betting closely. SLIPSLOPSLAP (1) returns from a six-month spell. Wasn't far from the placegetters in his three appearances last prep. Capable of sneaking into the finish with a soft run out of the inside gate. The winner should come from this quartet. GEENA (6) was poor first up at Moe but her two runs last prep were far better so give her the benefit of the doubt.

IDEAL MISS (8) has been to the races 16 times for five minor placings. Made a mid-race move to find the lead last start then battled on well to hold third over 1400m at this circuit. Has a liking for this surface with four placings from six runs here. Big chance in a very open maiden. ALLANDE (7) raced handy but just ran out of condition when resuming last time out over 1350m at Donald. Improved to finish second at Goulburn at the same stage last prep. Big chance out of gate one with the blinkers going on today. DALSUPA (3) led and fought hard but found a couple better in a 1400m maiden here recently. Fitter for two runs back from a long spell and should be in contention for a long way. ATLANTIC WAY (1) tackled this surface for the first time last start and improved sharply to hold onto third over 1200m after racing near the pace. Good each-way hope again. LADY ARDOYNE (9) is on trial at this distance but her form this prep has been sound.

JUST WISHING (14) again showed her love of synthetic tracks when she staged a huge form reversal last start, leading all the way and giving the others no chance over this course and distance. Has the gate speed to neutralise the wide barrier. Hard to toss again. KIRAKAT (11) is another who responded well to a switch to the all-weather last time out, finishing second over 1400m here after taking the lead a long way out. That run followed a six-week break so she will strip fitter and poses a serious threat. BONAMASSA (15) made it eight minor placings from 17 starts, with just the one win, when a game second behind Just Wishing in a similar race to this a fortnight ago. Meets the top pick better at the weights and at the barrier draw so he can turn the tables without surprising. TYCOON BEAU (6) has been competitive of late in stronger contests. Has only won one race and it came at this circuit. In the mix. Last-start maiden winner REGAL DUKE (3) is the pick of the others.

MY BOY BIRMINGHAM (2) comes across from Adelaide where he has contested stronger races this prep. Was caught deep last time so worked to the front then weakened out of the placings over this trip in a Bm82 at Morphettville. Outstanding performer on this surface who scored here at the same stage last prep. Perfectly placed to make it five wins from 10 career runs. The speedy BLACK BOLT (3) led and gave a kick before being swamped and finishing fifth last time out over today's journey at Pakenham. Up a little in class and new to the all-weather but still presents a threat. CONFRONTATIONAL (7) has improved at each run this prep. Came from last on the turn with a mighty run to miss by a whisker most recently over this trip at Sale. Will prove hard to hold out. COMTE (6) and HAMSLETTE (11) were 1-2 in a Bm64 over 1350m at Donald a month ago. Both found the line well on that occasion and should measure up here, with Comte bringing superior all-weather form to the table.

RONAY (2) recorded her eighth win at this circuit when she got home by a neck in a similar race to this ten days ago. Perfectly drawn again to travel up on the pace. Still gets in okay after the claim for Maddi Price who steered the mare last start. Can go back-to-back. ZIAVERA (9) was forced to race wide last time out over this course and distance but showed great tenacity to charge home and get up for second. No luck at the barrier draw again today but she will be peaking at the third run back so watch for her late. BLACK OPAL (1) was ridden off the pace in a change of tactics last time and did a good job to close for second over 1100m here despite a tough run four and five deep. Horror gate doesn't help but if he puts in like last time another top-three finish is on the cards. STEEL THE MOMENT (13) worked home well over 1100m here first up and is in the mix at the slightly longer trip. CALIFORNIA SUNSET (4) off a 30-day freshen-up can improve on recent efforts.

KOSOWSKI (1) was second-up from a two-month let-up when a determined winner last start over 1000m at this circuit. Lost his way for a while but the layoff seems to have done wonders. Only needs luck from the poor gate to repeat the dose. CARRY ON CAMPING (14) led and just failed to hold out Kosowski here last start when fresh from a 32-day break. Will take a lot from that run and can easily turn the tables. STAR OF MANHATTAN (9) was tightened for room in the closing stages when a very close fifth over this distance at Moe recently. Down in grade so although new to this surface is sure to be thereabouts. JELT (6) led from the outset and just prevailed when resuming over 905m at Albury a fortnight ago. Speedy mare who will be tough to catch again. The lightly-raced VESTED INTEREST (10) won his maiden on the Pakenham synthetic last start. Top-four prospect in this tougher assignment.
