OWL WITNESS (9) was well beaten in stronger company two starts back then found a better race last time and scored by 1. 5 lengths over 6f at Ballarat Synthetic. Likely to measure up again. PACKERS JOURNEY (10) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Ballarat Synthetic, finishing fourth and only 1. 5 lengths from the winner at the end of 6f when she did her best work late. Alana Kelly is a key engagement. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MR MARKLE (2) saluted at Casterton two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when third over 5f at Ballarat Synthetic, beaten 2. 5 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. BRULLEN (3) is a last-start winner over 7½f at Ballarat Synthetic, showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by a nose. Commendable record at this trip with a win and five minor placings and has solid claims.
