NOLAN (5) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 5f at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. THE PUNISHER (3) finished seventh over 6½f at Mackay at his most recent appearance on November 26. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. RAINBOW CONNECTION (1) is fresh from a lay-off of five months and did hit the frame when last resuming at Doomben over 5¼f. In a different yard now. Has ability and makes plenty of appeal. TSUNAMI (11) showed early speed from an outside draw last time and led for much of the way before fading to finish fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 6¼f at Cairns. Has ability and a bold showing is expected.
