BRAVE MASO (10) bounced back last start and got the job done by a nose after being prominent at the corner as favourite over 7f at this track. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot repeat the dose. NEVER GIVE UP (8) scored by a head in a at Toowoomba then missed the frame latest when fourth at Kilcoy. Drops a little in the weights. Will find this a little tougher but a bold showing is expected. COOL ENCOUNTER (5) was out of the money but in city grade last time at Doomben and does go well this venue. Jake Bayliss stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Certainly one to consider. ASHFALL (17) is a handy type who resumes after a break of four-and-a-half months. Only appeared once last prep when he finished seventh over 1m at Warwick Farm, beaten 6 lengths. Fitter for recent trials. Backmarker who gets home hard. Can feature in the finish.
