LONESOME SOUL (3) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. Looking to emulate her win at this track at the beginning of last prep. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. BENEFITSOFMINE (1) was less than a length from the winner in second at Sunshine Coast on debut before showing the benefit of that race experience when an impressive winner over 6f at Gold Coast last start when resuming on a soft ground. Capable of further improvement and can go on with the job. WANNABE BRUTAL (2) broke his maiden last start over 6f at Gold Coast, scoring by 3 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Harder task ahead this time but can measure up. KURITHEA (4) hit the line strongly on debut last start to finish third, beaten 2.25 lengths over 6f at Doomben. Solid top-three hope.
