JONNY DA WOLF (3) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at Doomben, finishing eighth and beaten 8 lengths over 6f. Finds the right race this time and can find winning form. SALAMANCAS (4) resumes from a four-and-a-half months lay-off after two sound efforts as favourite during the maiden campaign. Finished fourth at the most recent appearance over 7f at Sunshine Coast. Placed in a recent trial and should be in the finish. FOURANDAHALF (2) is a Charge Forward gelding who was an AUD $ 25,000 (Magic Millions 2022 Gold Coast National Yearling Sale) purchase. Fitter for a recent trial. With the blinkers added shapes as one to consider. WHITE CHRISTMAS (5) debuted three-and-a-half weeks ago when he finished sixth over 7f at Grafton, beaten 2.5 lengths. Plenty of scope for improvement.
