IOWNA BENZ (4) returns from a lay-off of three months and is having her first run for a new yard. Finished fifth at Goulburn over 5½f when when resuming last time in work. Makes plenty of appeal in the new surrounds. DEEPWATER ARTIST (9) resumes after a break of five months. Did win at his only other when resuming run when on debut, scoring over 5f190yards at Albury. Capable of playing a major role. CHRISTMAS STAR (8) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at Sapphire Coast over 5f. Goes well at this trip, recording four minor placings and is one of the prime contenders. GIZA (10) returns from a lay-off of five-and-a-half months and did win when resuming last time in work over 5f at Sapphire Coast. Sound prospects.
