FARAG (2) makes his jumps debut for the Purcell yard. He ran in the Terang Cup fresh but looked solid jumping in a recent trial and will have no issue staying strongly over this sort of trip. Expecting he runs well. HIGHNESS (4) has experience over the jumps, beaten by Vadarchie as a $1.65 favourite at Pakenham over the jumps last time out. Likely more depth here but he can improve. NORMANDY BRIDGE (6) makes his jumps debut off a long spell. On his day he was a very good flat horse, and he's trialled over the jumps very well on a few occasions. No surprise to see him short in betting. HIGHLAND BLAZE (3) makes his jumps debut off the back of strong flat form and solid trials. Will stay the trip well. SO BRAVE (7) can figure.
