DAGON (5) opened this prep with a win two runs ago. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 5f at Wyong, beaten half a length. Faces an easier assignment so he is a major player. NONSHALAANT (4) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 5f at this track when he was in the firing line all the way. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. BEAU FACTOR (8) returns from a lay-off of eight months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when eighth over 4¾f at Moree. Has a strong record at this journey with two wins and a placing from four starts and has winning claims on best figures. DESTINY'S BOUNTY (1) pushed forward from a wide draw last start and kept going to win by a long neck over 5½f at Cowra. Another bold showing expected.
