MALARINA (9) wasn't far away when resuming last start, finishing third over 6f at this track. The extra journey should play into her hands. Ready to win. PANGAEA (4) travelled in a rearwards position then made some inroads and finished 2.75 lengths away in fifth last time out over 6f at Gold Coast Poly three weeks ago as 11/10 favourite. Steps up in journey. Backmarker who keeps coming. Leading contender. ACID WASH (1) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when ninth, beaten 2 lengths, over 6¾f at Doomben after he travelled towards the rear of the field. Cherry-ripe now and is among the leading chances. REPHRASE (12) has been in the market at her last couple of starts since resuming but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing tenth over 6f at Gold Coast Poly. Can improve and is worth including.
