NARBOLD (4) returned from a lay-off two weeks ago when he was beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. ROYAL HILL (5) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then was always well out of his ground last start when 3 lengths away in sixth over 6f at Caulfield. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. DHAMALUNA (9) ran a fair race on debut last time out, beaten 2 lengths into sixth over 7f at Pakenham Synthetic on August 30. Can sneak into the finish. MILLIE DE LUNE (12) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then she got a long way back and was beaten 12 lengths when fifth in a 6½f contest at Hawkesbury six weeks ago. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
