CANOODLING (6) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 5¼f at this track when second, beaten one length. Will benefit from that experience so she will prove tough to beat. SECRET SORT (1) wasn't far away on debut last start over 5¼f at this track, finishing second and beaten 0.7 lengths. Likely improver who should go well. MR DEMOCRAT (3) is a two-year-old gelding on debut by Better Than Ready from Our First Lady who has been a prolific producer including winners at black type level. Coming along well at the trials with a win at his most recent at Deagon. Sure to be well-educated, being from the Jack Bruce stable. Importantly has a nice gate and looks certain to be competitive. ANGEL'S TRUMPET (7) was unwanted in betting on debut last start but ran a strong race, finishing third and beaten 6 lengths over 5f at Sunshine Coast. Has upside and must be respected.
