INTRIGUING STATE (5) in the money at both runs this prep, the latest a solid second, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 5f on turf at Bairnsdale. First try on synthetic. Winning prospects. COUNT OF TOULOUSE (1) ran below expectations last time at Bairnsdale, finishing tenth and beaten 4 lengths starting at 6/1. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. REBELS (3) is a handy type who resumes after a break of six months. At his last appearance he finished sixth over 7½f at Yarra Valley, beaten 8 lengths. Fitter for recent trials. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a lay-off in two starts. Should be poised just off the lead. Sure to be competitive. MISSILE GIRL (8) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race last time out over 6f at Ballarat Synthetic, finishing second and beaten a nose. Well placed and should be about the money.
