LOBLOLLY (10) is a maiden galloper resuming today after a spell of nine months. Closed last campaign with a fifth over 1200m at Geelong, beaten 5.5 lengths. Fitter for four trials, placing most recently. Among the leading chances. NOBLE RUBY (11) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1000m at Wagga, beaten only half a length. Has the class to produce another positive result. PIEROLITE (3) finished in the placings over 1200m at Nowra before going for a break and returns here a gelding. Fitter for placing in a recent Warwick Farm trial. Should feature in the finish. REDOUTE'S GIRL (5) is a two-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at Nowra over 1000m, beaten 3.5 lengths. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration.
