13 was quick to scratch from that wide barrier. 5, 6, 9, 10, 11 all had 'other places to go' as of Wednesday morning. CASTLEJOHN has been up on-speed in all three wins but was slow to go and settling well back in a Sept 11 trial. He closed out quite well in that and presumably can adapt back to more positive tactics for raceday. FUNDAMENTAL NATURE claims to 55 kilos and will set up close to the front also. Essentially she and CRUISERWEIGHT crossed the line together in Melbourne a fortnight back. They accepted together in the last at Caulfield this week so let's see who heads up. SOVERATO (in at Gold Coast Saturday) will be better over further but was consistent all the way through her 3YO season.
