INFURIATED (8) is back from a lay-off of five-and-a-half months. Closed last prep with a 16th, beaten 11 lengths, over 1m at Belmont Park. Looks ready to run a big race following two recent trials. Should be in the finish. DREAMTIME JEAN (1) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 0.9 lengths back in fourth over 7½f at Pinjarra. Well placed and expected to feature. FRAPPUCCINO (4) went fast early over 7f at Belmont Park last time and defied all challengers to score by a nose. Has the speed to overcome a wide draw. Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role. OUTFIELD (5) ran a better race last start, finishing 4 lengths away in seventh over 6½f at Belmont Park. Better than recent efforts suggest.
