PHYSICIST (7) is a four-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Patrick Sexton stable. Resumes after finishing fifth at Canterbury at his last run three-and-a-half months ago. Not seen at the trials but looks nicely placed. Should prove tough to beat. DREAM LANTERN (6) last appeared when she saluted over 6¾f at Ipswich on October 24. Has ability and should be right in the finish. ADALIE (3) was sent out at 16/1 last time but ran above expectations and won over 5½f at Toowoomba. Big chance to repeat the feat. APOLLO TEN (14) is a last-start winner over 5½f at Beaudesert, showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by 1.75 lengths. In the mix.
