BOBBY SHIRAZ (3) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished 4 lengths away in fifth last time out over 6¾f at Doomben when fresh from a lay-off. Steps up in journey. Faces a far less daunting assignment this time. Likely to feature. DUPONT (2) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1m1/4f at Grafton. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the chocolates. EMBOLDEN (4) started at 7/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths at Murwillumbah over 1m2f. Has the ability to take care of this field. VERMEER (8) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on June 23 finishing seventh and beaten 3 lengths over 1m2f at Murwillumbah. Among the better hopes.
