WELWAL finished strongly to end up midfield last start at Doomben on a soft track and has disappointed in both starts as a favourite. Won once this prep at Rosehill Gardens two runs back. Don't dismiss. WAR ETERNAL short back-up of seven days. Can't knock the form winning two in a row at Eagle Farm and Doomben. Has the speed to overcome drawing the widest barrier. Consider. YELLOW JERSEY first-up after 33 week spell. Just missed as favourite last start at ParisLongchamp when first up and has been flying of late. At least a place chance here. VICTORIA ROAD generally races near the speed and placed in two of three at Eagle Farm before. Well placed.

MARFFIANO got the campaign off to a strong start winning when fresh at metro level and came on to finish midfield last start at Gold Coast on a soft track. Must be respected from this yard. Solid claims. AREPRICE ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Gold Coast when resuming. An untried jockey and trainer combination. Comes back to Saturday racing in town. Must be considered. HARD TO EXCEED resumes from a 14 week spell. Won at only start at Doomben but could struggle from the widest barrier, still don't dismiss.

ALALCANCE coming off a win at Eagle Farm and blinkers come off for the first time. Capable of racing on speed. Ideally suited. ATHABASCAN finished fifth last start at Eagle Farm on a soft track. Likely to race on the speed and a Tom Charlton trained horse. Each-way claims.

SIXTIES can't knock the form with three wins from six attempts this campaign at metro level and won all previous races as a favourite. James McDonald is once again reunited with a Chris Waller horse. Winning chance. WITHIN THE LAW amongst the placegetters last start running third at Eagle Farm when fresh and generally strong second-up. From a good stable. Leading hope. SKYHOOK won once this prep at Hawkesbury two runs back and amongst the placegetters last start running second at Eagle Farm. Rates highly with Kerrin McEvoy aboard. Should be right in the finish.

PAYLINE expected to settle just off the speed and has trialled since last race 28 days ago. Cannot rule out. PEREILLE unwanted by the market but right up there last start at Doomben. Should get a nice run behind a genuine early tempo and from a strong camp. Among the main chances. ANEMACORE can't knock the form with three wins from seven attempts this campaign at metro level and comes back to race in the city on a Saturday. Expected to settle just off the speed. One for the multiples.
