ROYAL BOMBADIER (4) improved sharply on his fifth two starts back at Gatton with a win as public elect over 6f at Goondiwindi two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 2. 75 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. HERECOMESANTORINI (8) finished fifth two runs back at Gold Coast Poly then improved last time out to score by 1. 2 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner over 6f at Kilcoy. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. SOUTHAMPTON NICCO (5) was in a different class last time with a dominant 5 lengths win over 5½f at Armidale, making it two wins in a row. Has claims if runs up to his latest effort. RUSSIAN RIPPER (13) returned from a lay-off last start with a strong win by a nose over 5½f at Gatton. Open to plenty of improvement and is worth including.
