BROOKLYN DAN (8) has had four weeks off since a last-start win at Melton but has been kept up to the mark with a trial. That was his fourth success from five starts this time in, highlighted by his Gold Chalice and Caduceus 3YO Classic victories. Won the only time he raced here and has the class to overcome the wide draw. NOCTURNAL (3) came from wider and chased a good filly when second last start at Menangle. Overcame a back row draw in scoring at the previous appearance at Bathurst. Draws well so can play a role. YOU ARE MY WISH (2) goes up in grade but is in fine form with three wins and two placings in five starts since a fifth behind Brooklyn Dan in the Gold Chalice. Led from a wide barrier to score at Menangle last start so can push forward from the low draw. BLACK OPAL JACK (4) is worth including having put a string of wins and placings together.
