CAVERN (4) resumes after a break of five months. Did win at his only other when resuming run when on debut, scoring over 5f at Bendigo. Placed in a recent trial. Sure to go well. FIRERATED (5) was well in commission when resuming last start over 5f at Cranbourne but could only manage fourth, although only 1. 75 lengths from the winner. Should park just off the speed. Likely to feature. BEAR CHAMP (2) broke his maiden last start over 5f at Werribee when resuming, scoring by 4 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Re-unites with Jake Noonan who was on board last start. Tougher task this time but expected to be competitive again. OUTER BANKS (3) got off the mark when resuming from a lay-off over 5f at Bendigo last start, scoring by a neck. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. This is tougher but he is capable of another big run.
