LOVES THE TRIP (10) resumes from a lay-off of ten months. Could only manage to finish eighth at the latest run over 7f at Launceston. Ran sixth in a recent trial at Launceston. Rates on top and is a great chance to break through. GETCHA GROOVE ON (8) is a three-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 4 lengths when fifth over 5f at this track. Will take a lot from that hit-out and looks a strong chance to break through. HALEN (2) failed to run a strong 1m last start after a close second over 7f21yards at Launceston the run prior. Appeals back in trip this time so deserves another chance. FOREIGN LEGION (1) was beaten 2.25 lengths into fourth over 6¾f at this track last time out. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
