GUNALUVA (5) has mixed the disciplines since returning from a lay-off. Unplaced when resuming in a on the flat then filled a minor prize last start in a hurdle (2m1/4f) at Ballarat, beaten a nose. Recent form suggests a big run is on the cards. DUKE OF BEDFORD (2) missed the frame in a on the flat over 1m3f. Appreciated the transition to jumps racing last time to win by 4 lengths (2m1/4f) at Ballarat. Big chance with the confidence restored. TOM FOOLERY (9) is looking to improve on a last-start sixth on the flat over 1m4 1/2f at Cranbourne on April 26. Looms as a serious contender. COTTON EYE JOE (8) was unplaced the start before last on the flat at Cranbourne then wound up in eighth last time (2m1/4f) at Ballarat. Expect improvement.
