STEEL TRAP (4) raced on the pace when resuming last start and lifted strongly to hold second, beaten 2.75 lengths, over this journey in the G3 SA Breeders Stakes at this track. Nicely placed to take this out. SALTY PEARL (5) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound second over 5½f at Bendigo when she did her best work late. Won't find this as tough so she is all set to open the account. BRAVE DESIGN (1) is back from a break of nine weeks. Raced twice in his maiden campaign and wasn't far away on either occasion including the last run when second over 7f in the G2 VRC Sires' Produce Stakes at Flemington. Breaks from a wide gate but can break though here fresh. MILLENNIUM BLADE (3) is a two-year-old colt who lines up for the first time. From a successful breeding line, being by Too Darn Hot from the stakes winner Curtana. Took out his most recent trial at Cranbourne. Hails from the strong juvenile stable of Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr. Promising type who is one to keep a close eye on in betting.
