ARCTIC BEAR (1) went forward last start over 1000m at Toowoomba and held on well for second, beaten 3.5 lengths. Should be on-pace despite the tricky draw. Looks well placed so expect another big run. DEEP SECRET (8) is a five-year-old mare who is having her first run for the James Healy stable. Resumes after finishing tenth at Kyneton at her last run six months ago. Fitter for a trial win at Eagle Farm and looks nicely placed. Among the leading chances. CRYPT DE PIN (7) last appeared when she won over 1350m at Warwick on November 18. Among the better hopes. HE'S A DEVIL (4) finished fourth last time out over 1200m at Kilcoy, beaten 2.25 lengths. Deserves serious consideration.
