AD ASTRA (8) is a maiden galloper who resumes after finishing in the money over 6f at Moonee Valley nine weeks ago. Sharpened for this with a recent trial win. Sure to go well. SECRET WONDER (3) showed good early speed last start on debut and fought on well to hold second, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 5f at this track. Should improve sharply and this looks a nice race. SHADY THINKER (5) is a first-starter by So You Think who was an AUD $ 50,000 (Magic Millions 2023 Adelaide Yearling Sale) purchase. Fitter for a recent trial win. Worth watching for positive market moves. THIRD MASTER (6) is a three-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Jon O'Connor. By Brutal from Outsider Art. Top-three chance.
