Herecomesantorini and Li'l Rex to take it up.
OUT OF TURN (3) stalked the leader then went home far too well in a BM58 over this course and distance last start. Not proven in heavy going but did pick up nicely on a slow track on the last occasion. Drops 4kgs after the claim so another win beckons. DARTH INVADER (5) has been plain in three runs this campaign, including a mediocre seventh to Out Of Turn here last time. Winkers go on and he plummets in the weights so a turnaround in form is not out of the question. The speedy HERECOMESANTORINI (6) led from the outset to record a comfortable win over 1200m at Kilcoy recently. No heavy track placings from two attempts is the niggle, but from gate one he should be prominent for a long way. NO NAME FRANK (1) resumes. Has won two races, both when first-up on soft tracks. No form on the heavy but expect he will run another bold race while fresh. WINCHMAN (2) is back from a four-month spell. Has placed at both fresh runs in the past and does enjoy getting the toe in the ground. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Out Of Turn.
