IRULAN (11) was at long odds on debut last time out and finished fifth, beaten 2. 75 lengths, over 6f at Newcastle. Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish. LUPA CAPITOLINA (13) is back after a break of five-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished sixth over 7½f at Newcastle. Tuned up with a fifth in a recent trial at Warwick Farm. Nicely placed and expected to go well. RIGA (10) is fitter for two runs back from a lay-off, progressing nicely last time to finish second, beaten half a length, at Newcastle over 6½f. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Sure to be competitive. ABOVE THE LAW (1) resumes from a lay-off of six months. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 1m at Kembla Grange. Placed in a recent trial. Has ability so don't underestimate.
