HE GOES BOOM (3) is a five-start maiden who could only manage to finish sixth at his latest appearance over 6f at Sunshine Coast. Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break through. APFEL (8) wasn't far off maiden success before a five months break, finishing the prep with a minor placing at Sunshine Coast. Tricky draw to overcome. Can launch this campaign in positive style. ELEVEN BLACK (1) was thereabouts last time out when second at this track over 6½f, beaten half a length. Cherry-ripe now. Drawn ideally and is a winning hope. ZOUWALER (5) was beaten 4. Well placed to turn things around.
