LUPINE (2) got well back over 1m2 1/4f at Doomben last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 6 lengths away in tenth. The engagement of Justin Huxtable is noteworthy. Has the ability to take care of this field. PUNJABI LANDING (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m2 1/2f at Lismore, beaten 2.75 lengths into seventh after being prominent at the turn. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is right in contention. EMPIRE OF ART (9) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 0.6 lengths when fourth over 1m2f at Hawkesbury two weeks ago. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SHAPE OF WATER (7) is a last-start winner over 1m1 1/2f at Kilcoy, showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by 0.6 lengths. Has a formidable combination with Scott Sheargold who has been aboard for his last two wins. Worth including in calculations.
