LEAN ON ME (10) returns after four months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a ninth over 6f at Darwin. Good effort to kick-off last prep when in the money at Darwin over 5½f. Well placed and happy to have her on top. DOWN THE WICKET (1) is returning from a lay-off of five-and-a-half months. Finished sixth at Colac over 5f at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Kevin Lamprecht. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. RANK'N'FILE (5) resumes from a lay-off of four-and-a-half months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1m at Darwin. Has ability and is a leading player. HELL FIRE MISS (9) returns from a layoff of three-and-a-half months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 6f at Darwin. Makes plenty of appeal.
