JOPPA LANE (2) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 6f at Eagle Farm after he gave away a big start. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. ARABIAN ROSE (11) is a progressive three-year-old filly who resumes from a break of four-and-a-half months, her last appearance being a win over 6f at Sunshine Coast at her only run of that campaign. Sharpened up by a recent trial placing. Has won when fresh from a lay-off in the past. Should park just off the speed. Expected to be in the finish. FIREFORCE (3) finds it hard to win with just one success from 10 starts. Was again denied last start when he found a couple better over 6¾f at Doomben. Won't find this as tough so he is likely to feature in the finish. AQUATIER (5) had been racing well with three consecutive placings before last start managing only tenth over 6¾f at Doomben. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Deserves respect on best figures.
