HURRICANE HALL (2) is a genuine five-year-old gelding who resumed with a solid second last time out at this track over 5f185yards. Leading player. NINE CIGARS (5) returned from a lay-off five weeks ago when he was beaten 6 lengths into fifth over 4¼f at this track. Has a fair record when second up, including three top-three finishes. Facing a tougher assignment but he is fitter and up to the task. DIGGITY (1) has not won for a long while. Last raced on July 13 when beaten 4 lengths into fifth at Esk over 6f. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. WAR TOO ALL (8) comes here off a break of four-and-a-half months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 5¼f at Rockhampton. Worth plenty of thought.
