STRANDED (7) is a eight-start maiden who is building towards a win, the latest run an encouraging third over 6f at this track after being in contention on the turn. Ideally placed to open his account. KAPPA CRUCIS (5) raced in town last time and missed the frame, finishing seventh at Morphettville and beaten 5. 5 lengths. Will find this easier than last start. Leading contender. CORNERBACK (4) finished out of the money two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 3 lengths when fourth over 6f at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. QATAR (6) is a three-start maiden who returned last time and finished ninth at Morphettville over 6f, beaten 6 lengths. Bold showing expected with added fitness this time.
