QUBELLA (11) is a nine-start maiden who finished fifth at her most recent outing over 6f at Ballarat after she got a long way back in the run. Well placed on this occasion and gets her chance to break the ice. INTOXICATION (9) raced below her best last time when sixth over 7f80yards at Kyneton, beaten 6 lengths. Meets a stronger field but she is up to the task. THREE JACKS (4) resumes from a lay-off of 11 weeks. Has filled a minor placing at both when resuming runs. Opened last prep with a third over 5f185yards at Wangaratta. Expected to run well. CYCLONE CARA (7) finished second last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5½f at Werribee, beaten 4 lengths. Fitter for that run. Capable of another top-three outcome.
