KEEN OBSERVER (6) was confidently backed on debut last start over 5f at Moe and finished second, beaten a head. Likely improver so he shouldn't be a maiden for long. AVENGERS (2) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 4. 5 lengths into sixth over 5f at Sale. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. SOMETHINGS BURNIN' (15) is a maiden galloper who hasn't raced since finishing 9 lengths back in 11th over 7f in the G3 The TL Baillieu Handicap at Rosehill four-and-a-half months ago. Fitter for two lead-up trials, including a win. Sure to be competitive. ALCHEMISTIC (1) is a son of Shamus Award out of Lot Three Four One who was purchased for AUD $ 120,000 (Inglis 2025 Classic Yearling Sale). Fitter for a winning trial at Coleraine. Watch for market confidence.
