WILD ROSES GROW (6) debuted two weeks ago when she finished fifth over 5f at Mornington, beaten 5 lengths. Expected to improve and will pay to follow up. HIGHSTRUNG (2) stepped out on his debut over 5½f at Ballarat five weeks ago and finished eighth, beaten 10 lengths. Can improve sharply and is expected to feature. STARBURST (4) is facing the starter for the first time. By Magnus and is out of the Tony & Calvin Mcevoy stable. Comes here off a Ballarat trial. Respect any positive move in betting. TOO DARN CRYSTAL (5) is facing the starter for the first time. By Too Darn Hot and comes from the Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr stable. Top-three chance.
