ROWEINER'S DANCE (4) was well in commission last start over 4½f at Innisfail when sixth, beaten 3 lengths. Distance specialist with 14 wins and five minor placings from 25 runs and is expected to be in the finish. HELLISH (1) was comfortably accounted for when seventh last time out over 6f at Townsville, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. That followed a win at Townsville at the previous outing. Finds the right race this time and can rediscover winning form. NORTHERN PRIDE (3) is back after a break of four months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 5½f at Mackay. Looks a strong top-three prospect. VIBURNUM (5) comes here off a last-start fourth, beaten 0. 7 lengths, over 5½f at Julia Creek. Has a good record at this journey with four wins from 20 starts. Solid top-three hope.
