DREAMZEL (4) hasn't raced since finishing seventh in the LR Carlyon Stakes at Moonee Valley and has placed in two trials leading into return. Generally runs well fresh. Rates strongly and expected to go close. NIMBUSTWOTHOUSAND (6) returns from a break of five months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a fifth over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside. Nicely placed to kick off another successful campaign. PHILOSOPHER (1) has been kept fresh since picking up a minor prize over 5½f at Geelong. Should be right up to the mark after a recent Cranbourne trial. Best figures have him right in the mix. BLACKBERRY BOMB (7) was a winner here at this circuit and journey three back but out of the placings in two runs since. Form here strong boasting two wins from three starts and must be respected.
