TOTTORI (6) is a first starter by Territories out of Imoto. Impressed in winning a trial at Murray Bridge with this rider Jake Toeroek aboard. Looks ready to run a big race. MERCURY EIGHT (4) remains a maiden after three runs. Was well in commission last time but after being prominent at the bend could only manage to finish fourth over 5¼f at Balaklava. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. REPTILIAN (12) finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5f at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. In the right race and is a winning hope. VELVET GEM (13) is a two-start maiden who finished fourth, beaten 2 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5f at this track. Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come.
