COFFIN DODGER (3) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at Sale over 5½f, beaten half a length. Cherry-ripe now. Drawn out but going well enough to play a big role. ALL THE WAY BABY (8) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at Warrnambool, beaten 4.5 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Finds a suitable race and can find winning form. TUSCAN STOREY (12) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of five-and-a-half months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 6f43yards at Geelong. Nicely placed and can get off the mark. HIGHLANDS (5) is a two-start maiden who filled a minor placing at Ballarat Synthetic at the last run before lay-offing. Jockey Brad Rawiller back aboard. Has ability and is worth including.
