LAIZABOUT (2) raced on the speed from the outset when resuming last start and finished second, beaten 2 lengths, over 6½f at Dubbo. In the right race and is a key runner. DEEBO (1) was well in commission last start over 1m at Tamworth when fifth, beaten 5 lengths. Has a strong record at this distance with a win and three minor placings from four starts and is a leading contender. BANYAN TREE (5) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7f at Taree, beaten 4 lengths. Fitter and sure to run well. MOUNT BONA (6) is back from a lay-off of six-and-a-half months. Closed last prep with a fourth, beaten 1. 2 lengths, over 7½f at Newcastle. Has definite claims.
