FUNSHOW (1) will find this a little easier than his second on debut two weeks ago, beaten 0. 6 lengths at the end of 6f at Beaumont (Newcastle). Likely improver so he should pay to follow. FIREWORK (2) is back after a break of five months. At the last run before the layoff he finished sixth over 6½f at Hawkesbury. Opened last prep with a minor placing at Kembla Grange over 6f. Looks ready to run following a minor placing in a recent Wyong trial. Ready to find winning form. ELEGANT FORCE (13) stepped out for her debut over 6f at Wyong back on July 5 and finished fourth, beaten 3 lengths. With the blinkers added a strong performance is on the cards. OAKFIELD UNIVERSE (8) was in contention on the corner and finished second last time over 5½f at Wyong when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 2 lengths. Capable of another bold effort.
