TEQUILA STORM (6) was not disgraced in city class last time when fifth at Moonee Valley but back to home course this time. Will find this easier than last start. Should be in the finish. NICCOLITE (1) resumes from a lay-off of six-and-a-half months and is having her outing under new trainer Patrick F Ryan Jnr. Finished seventh at Bendigo over 5½f at the opening run last time in work. Fitter for a minor placing in a recent Terang trial. Sure to be primed for this and a bold showing is anticipated. GOVERNOR (3) finished out of the money but was not too far away when resuming last start over 5f at Ballarat. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. One of the main contenders. FRANCINE (2) produced another moderate effort last start when 5 lengths from the winner in 11th over 5½f at Ballarat. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
