XUANFENG (9) last appeared five-and-a-half weeks ago over 6½f at Toowoomba when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Caitlin Johnstone stable. Can make an immediate impact for the new mentor. DARLING TAKE CARE (5) showed good early speed and raced just off the lead before lifting to score by 0. 6 lengths over 5f at Ballina last start. Commendable record at this trip with a win and three minor placings and is a key runner. KETTLEBELL (4) returns from a layoff of six months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 5f at Sunshine Coast. Worth plenty of thought. MISS MERCY (6) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last time over 5½f at Rockhampton, beaten 1. 1 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Likely improver with solid prospects.
