HOLIDAY LIGHTS (5) missed the placings two runs back then was never in contention last start when 23 lengths away in fifth over 1609m at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. VODKATINI (1) comes here off a break of ten weeks. Scored over 1609m at Delaware Park to launch the last campaign. Lines up today for the first time for trainer James R Jackson. Rates highly and should take some beating. THEE NEW BEGINNING (8) fought on well for third last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Goes well at this journey with four wins and two placings from nine starts and shapes as one to consider. MAGICALLY VANISHED (3) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 8 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
