NAVARRE RIVER (5) started at big odds on debut last start when sixth, beaten 2 lengths, over 6f21yards at Launceston. Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish. GEE GEES RUN OUT (8) is a six-start maiden who returned last time and finished tenth at Launceston over 5½f, beaten 4 lengths. Can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. PHERE THE GIRLS (10) is yet to break through in eight runs. Finished seventh at her last appearance over 7f at Launceston on October 4. Expected to feature in the finish this time. MATEUS (1) returns after eight months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 7f at Launceston. Ran fourth in a recent trial at Longford. Has ability so don't underestimate.
