DEVON ISLAND (2) did a great job to score by 5 lengths over this course and distance when first-up from a break last time out. Tackling a deeper field this time, but he can take the next step immediately. DON PELICANO (1) returns from a spell of six months and is having his first run for a new yard. He won on debut at Maronas over 1400m. He can make a winning local debut as well. BROTHERLY LOVE (4) improved last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1600m at this track. Meeting a tougher field, but he strips fitter, and is capable of a big performance. TAILGUNNER JOE (3) has not been sighted since he finished sixth over 1609m at Newmarket (Rowley) on September 27. Must be respected in his first local start. Use the market as your best guide.
