KUROYANAGI (1) was an impressive winner last time over 5½f at Gawler, stalking the pace before lengthening nicely to score by 2.75 lengths. Looks the testing material again. DARLINC (5) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish third over 5½f at Gawler. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Bold showing expected again. AD ASTRA (6) is facing the starter for the first time. By Tassort and hails from the Michael Hickmott stable. Comes here off a Murray Bridge trial placing. Watch for a betting push. MINATO (9) is a two-year-old filly on debut. From an elite family that includes black type success, being by Magna Grecia from the former top race mare Jolie's Shinju. Was out of the placings at Murray Bridge at her only trial. Promising type who is sure to be well-found in betting.
