TUQIRI (7) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6¾f at Doomben, beaten 5.5 lengths. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. OUR ORATOR (2) last appeared four weeks ago over 1m1 1/2f at Canterbury when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the P M Busuttin stable. Rates highly so expect him to be prominent. TIRITIRI (6) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just two times from 24 starts. Was again denied last start when he found a couple better over 1m at Sunshine Coast. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. CHAYSE 'N' ADAM (8) will find this a little easier after missing the frame in town last time, finishing 12th over 7½f at Eagle Farm. Can figure in the finish.
