HIGHLAND DUEL (1) on the synthetic for the first time. On his return from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months. Kicked off the last campaign with a third at Launceston over 5½f. Has never been out of the placings in five starts at this journey and should be in the finish. } berserker (5) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at hobart, finishing fourth and only 1.4 lengths from the winner at the end of 7f after being in the firing line on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. GETCHA GROOVE ON (6) fought on well for third last start over 5¾f at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Can measure up again. THOROS OF MYR (2) gave a sight here last time, leading until claimed in the straight and finishing seventh, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 5f. Can sneak into the finish.
