DAGON (5) hasn't raced since finishing eighth at Scone and has been gelded in the break. Fitter for a trial win at Warwick Farm. Rates a top chance here. REWARD'S DAUGHTER (8) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she got a long way back over 6f at Pakenham, beaten 7 lengths into fourth. Has the talent to take care of this field. IVY'S WAY (7) is a filly by Deep Field out of Waterspell on debut. Fitter for two trials. Keep an eye on betting moves. NICKERS BOY (6) debuted three weeks ago when he finished seventh over 4½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Expected to be right there at the business end.
