Very keen early battle with Jin Chi Phantom and Scruff's Magic matching motors and there are a few others that can keep them busy. BIJARA (4) finds it hard to win with just one success from 14 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1200m at Coonabarabran, beaten 4 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BUPKIS (9) returned from a break of nine months with a solid third last start at Coonabarabran over 850m after she was well back on straightening. Won't mind the extra ground. Among the winning hopes. ART ANGEL (8) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on November 25 finishing eighth and beaten 16 lengths over 1700m at Cowra. Can make her presence felt. BRAVE ENOUGH (5) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing eighth at Coonabarabran over 1200m. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot return to winning ways. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 4,9,8,5.
