BARRACUDA (1) has been trialling sharply after a promising debut over a year ago. Senior rider goes on first up and expecting a bold return in this line up. BLANC DE NOIR (4) brings a string of consistent results into this over short course trips. Still nicely weighted back at provincial level and drawn ideally. Rates as ready to win. FLYING ARGYLE (2) is on the quick back up after a brave runner-up effort at this track and trip last start. Genuine threat third up for the campaign. OCEAN JOY (5) disappointed first up but showed early bloom last campaign. With a much softer draw can improve sharply at a suitable trip. RARE MOON (7) showed potential last campaign. Place chance fresh.
