ZOUSTRONG (3) recorded his first win when resuming last start over 5½f at Longreach, getting home by a long neck. Big chance to go back-to-back. MISSISSIPPI DREAM (8) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 12 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 7f65yards at Home Hill, beaten 3. 5 lengths. Steps up a level but she is sure to play a feature role. HE'S THE ONE (1) finished second last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5½f at this track, beaten a nose. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and three minor placings. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. OFFICE POLITICS (5) finished fifth last start over 5f at Townsville after racing on the pace for much of the way. Can figure in the finish.
