STAR OF KONGO (5) was a new acquisition for the Sharyn Trolove team last start when he made steady ground to run into second over 1m at this track at the first run back from a lay-off. One of the genuine hopes in the race. SERGEANT MAVERS (3) ran above expectations and got up for third at big odds at his latest appearance at Pakenham over 1m. Should park just off the speed. Expecting a bold showing. BIT OF OZ (1) is tested on a turf track for the first time. On his return from a lengthy lay-off. Finished fifth at Pakenham Synthetic over 1m when last resuming. Sure to make his presence felt. REAL WILD CHILD (8) finished 10 lengths from the winner in sixth at her most recent appearance over 1m2f at Pakenham after she gave away a big start. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes.
