GOBBO'S MATE (3) showed good early dash last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing a long neck away in second over 6f at Wagga. Sure to go well. YAM (6) finished 1.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 5½f at Kyneton after being in contention on the bend when resuming from a lay-off. Steps up in distance. Won't find this as tough. Should be in the finish. KING DE LUNE (5) is back after a break of eight months. Looking to emulate his win at Wangaratta when returning from a lay-off last prep. Sure to make his presence felt. BLONDIE'S TORONADO (11) hit the frame two starts ago at Wangaratta but ran below par last time when ninth and beaten 6 lengths over 7f at Sandown-Hillside. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.
