COAL RIVER (2) returns from a lay-off of five-and-a-half months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished fifth at Ballarat Synthetic over 6f when when resuming last time in work. Fitter for a fourth in a recent trial over 3f201yards at Longford. Winning chance. VERHOEVEN (8) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at Launceston, beaten 5 lengths. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. DON TURBOAS (9) ran well on debut last start to finish second over 5¾f at Devonport Synthetic in a tougher race. Tricky draw to overcome but another top-three finish is on the cards. MONCLERE (4) could only manage to finish fifth, beaten 2. 75 lengths, at his latest appearance over 6f at Launceston. Finds a suitable assignment this time and can improve.
