TOPHET (3) Hellbent gelding resuming from a lengthy break and now in the Matt Dunn yard. Covered ground from the wide gate when tenth over 1100m at Seymour last August. Wasn't pushed out in two trials and gets his chance from the draw. AGENT MAX (4) bounced off his debut second, with a slick on-pace victory over 1000m at Taree. Luke Rolls stays aboard and he has the upside to overcome the wide gate. MONACO FLYER (5) on the quick backup after he failed to close off when fifth over 1120m at Lismore. Has fitness on his side and gets map favours. AUSTRALASIA (6) got off the mark here at start eleven when closed late for a narrow win over 1015m. Looks up to this stronger contest and will be doing his best work late.

    Form hard to fault. At the latest run won by a neck at this track Ctry Mdn-Sw January 9 over 1015m defeating Southampton Flare with 55.5kg at $3.50. The run before that got back early 3rd in a small field at Murwillumbah Ctry Mdn-Sw on December 29 over 1100m, 1.75 len behind Just Legendary carrying 54kg at $10. Confidence is high and should be thereabouts again.
