RUSSIAN ZARINA (6) last appeared when she finished 12th over 7f27yards at Moruya on May 26. Capable of playing a major role. STRATIFIED (2) broke through for his maiden win over 5½f at Narromine last time, scoring comfortably. Looks well placed and he is one of the main chances. NEGATION (5) made late ground and finished third last time over 4½f at Scone when resuming from a lay-off, beaten a nose. Ready to go a couple better. PERFUMIST (7) resumes after a break of five months. Did win at her only other when resuming run when on debut, scoring over 5½f at this track. Fitter for a fourth in a recent trial over 5f32yards at Rosehill. Sure to make her presence felt.
