DUKE OF ARRAKIS (5) impressed when resuming then took on a much better race last time when tenth over 7f in the LR The Tapp-Craig at Rosehill. Well placed to make amends. ALABAMA FOX (3) returned from a lay-off two weeks ago when she was beaten 2. 5 lengths into fourth over 6¼f at Randwick Kensington. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. CLIMB THE LADDER (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4 lengths when fourth over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside three weeks ago after being prominent at the corner. Must raise the bar but a big run is on the cards. CHANNELLING (8) finished second last start over 1m at Hawkesbury, beaten 1. 1 lengths. Should take a lot from that hit-out. In the right race and is one of the better hopes.
