AUSSIE ADAPTOR (5) turned in an eye-catching run over 5½f at Stony Creek last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. Expected to prove tough to hold out again. BUVELOT (3) broke through for his maiden win over 5½f at Pakenham last time, scoring comfortably. Winning rider Jye Mcneil stays aboard and he is worth including. AUCKLAND (2) returns from a short break after finishing eighth over 5f at Cranbourne seven-and-a-half weeks ago. Fitness should hold up after a recent Cranbourne trial placing. One of the contenders. MACHINIST (4) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing seventh at Pakenham over 5f after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form again.
