FORTIS IN ARMIS (1) is resuming from a lay-off of eight months and having his first run for the Michael Hickmott yard. Was in the placings when when resuming from a lay-off last campaign at Murray Bridge over 6f. Fitter for a minor placing in a recent Oakbank trial. Can make an immediate impact for the new mentor. EL PASO CITIE (2) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 2.75 lengths over 5½f at Bordertown. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and she is definitely worth including. WILLIAM'S QUEST (13) finished second last start over 6f at Kingscote, beaten a neck. Ready to go one better. PRANCING COUNTESS (9) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage eighth over 6¾f at Strathalbyn. Well-placed and can sneak into the finish.
