|---|---|---|---|---|

Solid tempo anticipated with Shishamo Friend heading them off. GYRO (5) returns from a break of five-and-a-half months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1200m at this track. Rates highly and a bold showing is expected. DER FLUG (2) is a strong fresh performer back after a break of six months and looking to emulate his win at this track to kick off the last campaign. Major player. IT'S COOL (3) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on November 6, finishing fourth over 1200m at this track. Can make his presence felt. SHISHAMO FRIEND (10) returns after a spell of five-and-a-half months. Looking to emulate her win at this track at the beginning of last prep. Worth plenty of thought.
