NANKEEN (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Naracoorte, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is good enough to take this out. HYPERNOVA (2) broke his maiden last start over 5f at this track, scoring by a nose. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Re-unites with Kayla Crowther who was on board last start. Nicely placed to double the win tally. NOITULOVER (8) got off the mark over 5f at this track last start, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Jacob Opperman was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the ride. This is tougher but she cannot be underestimated. GRUELLING (9) was unplaced two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 6f at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths into sixth. The engagement of Jason Holder is a positive move. Nicely placed to find some form.
