NOBLE DECREE (1) got off the mark when resuming from a spell over 1200m at this track last start, scoring by 0.7 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Re-unites with Noel Callow who was on board last start. Big chance to go back-to-back. BACKSTAGE (3) resumes after a break of four months. Hoping for a repeat of his debut win over 1200m at Gold Coast to kick off last prep. Should be prominent. CHOSEN LEGEND (6) is a three-year-old filly who is having her first run for the Barry Lockwood barn. Resumes after finishing seventh at Mornington at her last run three-and-a-half months ago. Fitter for placing in a Doomben trial and is in a nice race. Leading prospect. MEHRETU (4) finished third last start over 1200m at Doomben, beaten 0.9 lengths. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping.
