LADY WARDELL (10) returns to her home track after a fair run in town last time when eighth at Doomben. Should enjoy the significant drop in grade. Leading contender. MAXIMUM VORTEX (4) is mixing his form, the latest effort a 12th over 6f in the LR Hinkler Quality at Eagle Farm. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Among the leading chances. TECTONIC PLATE (2) is coming along nicely this prep. Finished ninth when fresh from a lay-off two starts back at Grafton then improved and scored over 5f207yards at Grafton six-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 2 lengths. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. CELESTIAL SOL (3) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5f at Sunshine Coast, beaten 3 lengths. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts.
