JORDY (5) continued his good form when he placed in a higher-graded race at this circuit last week. Recorded three successive top-two finishes in Brisbane prior including a narrow win two back. Draws wider than last week but goes well when contesting this longer distance here. DONEGAL LUTHER (1) kept his manners in check and returned to winning form last week, scoring by more than 5m at this venue and distance. Led throughout there so has the gate speed to take advantage of the inside draw. MORE GOODA (9) draws deep but should find this easier than her last attempt and recorded a win and a placing from her previous two stats here. BARTELLO (2) did a good job to place from a wide barrier last start so will enjoy the low draw. MONTEFIORE (8) was brave in the Winter Cup Final last week, racing three wide without cover but boxing on for a third success placing. Include.
