GATCHAN (8) has been thereabouts without winning, the most recent effort a second at Wagga over 1600m when she was beaten a nose. Looks all set to grab that well-deserved win. STAR OF THE CLASS (10) broke through for her maiden win over 1410m at this track last time. Handy draw will assist and she should be in the finish again. CEREMONIOUS (3) returned from a break of five months with a solid third last start at Wagga over 1400m when he was up on the pace all the way. The extra journey should play into his hands. One of the main contenders. HELLO JACK (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1610m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths into fourth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
