SANTASIA (9) hasn't been far away recently including last time out when second over 5f at Mornington. Takes on a tougher assignment but a bold showing is expected. JENNYANYDOTS (7) has been kept fresh since filling a minor placing at Kyneton over 5½f six weeks ago. Looks to be ticking over nicely judging by a recent trial win at Ballarat. Capable of going well on best figures. BOOM BOOM RAY (2) recorded his first win when resuming last start over 5f at Bendigo, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Jamie Mott was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the ride. This is tougher but he is capable of another big run. PANIGALE (5) showed good early dash and led throughout to score by a nose last time out over 5f at Morphettville Parks. Must be included.
