DARK GLEAM (2) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 6f at Wyong. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. TAMPA BAY (6) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 4½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths into eighth. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. HELL OF A FOX (10) returns after five months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a ninth over 6f at Canterbury. Has trialled two times leading into this. Leading player on best figures - bold showing expected. ATOMIC CLOCK (8) is a two-year-old filly on debut by The Autumn Sun from Time Check who has been a prolific producer including winners at black type level. At her most recent trial was out of the placings at Warwick Farm. Has the right credentials to make a bright start to her career despite a difficult stall.
