THE HINDUSTAN (3) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at Sunshine Coast, beaten 6 lengths into fifth after being prominent at the turn. Finds a nice race and can get the job done. TRUSTY BANDIT (2) gave away a considerable start over 1m at Sunshine Coast last time before hitting the line well to finish fourth. Will drift back but is going to be hard to hold out. CATCH CRIES (5) failed to figure again last time over 1m2 3/4f at this track, beaten 9 lengths into fifth. Expected to feature if at her best. GUTHO (7) finished 12 lengths away in fifth at his last appearance over 6½f at Moree on December 14. Expected to feature in the finish this time.
