WATCHGUARD (7) missed the frame when resuming last start over 5f at Casino but wasn't all that far from the winner. Should camp just off the leaders. Will prove tough to beat. O'MISS BEHAVING (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when sixth in a 1m contest at Sunshine Coast eight weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. IT'S HELLS BELLS (4) battled on well to hold second last start over 5f at Dalby, beaten one length. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. TOP BIRD (2) turned in a nice run when fresh from a lay-off two starts back at Ballina then missed the placings last time when 6 lengths from the winner in seventh over 5f at Gold Coast. Likely improver who can feature in the finish.
