KERNEL BOOM (5) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 5f at Sunshine Coast after he was in the firing line on the bend. Has further improvement to come and is the one they have to beat. BREMERS (3) drifted back then closed strongly to score on debut over 5¼f at this track four weeks ago. Sure to improve and can make it back-to-back wins. MY DOG DIESEL (1) finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5¼f at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. Has a good record at this course and distance, including three wins. Nicely placed to go a couple better. ON MERIT (2) scored last start at Dalby to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Form at this distance is strong with two wins from four starts and has solid claims.
