CAPITAL DANCER (12) finished third, beaten 0.8 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 4½f at this track after she was in contention on the turn. Meets a stronger field but she is capable of a big run. RARE MOON (14) has been in the betting at both starts but has failed to live up to market expectations. Most recently finished sixth over 4½f at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Must respect recent market confidence so give her another chance. LUNA FIELD (2) is a maiden galloper who hasn't raced since finishing in the placings over 5½f at Wyong five months ago. Tuned right up with two lead-up trials. One of the contenders. HIDDEN MOGUL (5) returns after seven months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 5½f at Scone. Tuned up with a fourth in a recent trial at Warwick Farm. Rates highly on best form and should be in the mix.
