ROSE NOIR (9) started at 9/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 3.5 lengths at Doomben over 5½f after being in the firing line on the corner. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. LITTLE SPARK (11) last appeared when she finished eighth over 6¾f at Warwick on November 18. Has ability and should be right in the finish. BOONAH FLASHER (6) broke her maiden last start over 4f76yards at this track, scoring by 3 lengths. Tougher task this time but expected to be competitive again. ARCTIC BEAR (3) broke his maiden last start over 4f76yards at this track when resuming, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Tougher task this time but expected to be competitive again.
