STEIN (14) was well fancied last start over 6f at Ipswich when second, beaten 3 lengths. Facing a tougher assignment but she is a leading contender. RIGHTEOUS LEGEND (1) showed good early dash when resuming last start and held on well to finish 1. 5 lengths back in second over 6f at Beaudesert. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is good enough to make a big impact. LINWAR (4) is a maiden galloper who resumes after finishing in the money over 6f at Warwick four-and-a-half months ago. Tuned right up with two lead-up trials. Capable of a big return. ANCIENT SCENT (7) was in the firing line on the bend and finished third last time over 6f at Eagle Farm, beaten 1. 2 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing.
