ARMOUR FORCE (6) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished 2 lengths away in sixth last time out over 6¼f at Cairns nine days ago. Steps up in distance. Has a fine record here with four wins from 12 starts. Should run well. DILLINGER (8) is a distance specialist who missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 5.5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1m2 1/2f at Ballarat Synthetic. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. JOHN JOSEPH (14) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1m1 1/2f at Cairns after being prominent at the turn. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is worth serious consideration. GOING NUCLEAR (15) finished 2 lengths back from the winner last start at Mackay on a soft ground and is down in weight this time. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Not to be discounted.
