In the absence of noted leaders, My Mate Elvis and Kenny's Swans may be the ones to set a moderate tempo. COSTALIVIN (5) is a Toronado filly on debut for the sharp Matty Dale stable. Trialled smartly at Canberra back in October but hasn't been seen since. Finds a thin maiden and can return with a bang. MY MATE ELVIS (6) has mixed his form since resuming but his run two back at Albury reads very well for this. Gets in light and can give this a big shake if on-song. KENNY'S SWANS (3) returns for a new stable. Hasn't been seen at public trials but did show positive signs on debut when a close fourth. Drawn well and is in the mix. NAUGHTON'S BAR (2) also has his first start for a new stable off a short spell. Worth monitoring for market support. SUGGESTED PLAY: Costalivin gets the nod.
