BOLD AND BLAZEN (1) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when eighth over 7f at Hawkesbury after he was prominent at the turn. Cherry-ripe now and is a great chance to break through. MAGICAL MOMENTS (4) finished fourth when resuming two runs back then progressed nicely last time out to score by 3. 5 lengths over 7f at Kembla Grange. Likely to be there at the finish again. DUCK FOR COVER (2) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a head over 6½f at Kembla Grange. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is a great chance to go back-to-back. PICCADERRO (3) scored last start at Taree to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Don't underestimate.
