SAXON BEACH (4) last appeared when he finished fifth over 6½f at Darwin on July 30. Has switched to the Barry Cooke stable. One of the genuine hopes in the race. DYNASTY REWARD (2) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time when he was handy all the way over 5½f at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. STAMPED (7) resumes from a lay-off of 11 weeks and is having his first outing under new trainer Ray Viney. Finished tenth at Geelong over 6f122yards at the opening run last time in work. Can make his presence felt. LAWS WARS (6) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of four months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 6¾f at Strathalbyn. Solid top-three hope.
