CHANGE THE DATE (2) is a distance specialist who missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 4.5 lengths away in tenth over 1175m at this track. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. NICKELBACK (8) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just three times from 30 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 1350m at Doomben, beaten half a length. Finds a more suitable contest and can salute. YELLOWHAMMER (6) was in contention on the corner and finished second last time over 1350m at Ipswich when resuming from a spell, beaten a head. Nicely placed to play a major role. RED RED WINE (3) had been racing consistently with two minor placings on end prior to finishing eighth most recently over 1350m at Doomben. Back to the track at which he finished second two runs back. This is far easier. Sure to be thereabouts.
