Areaan was very good on debut last start over this course and distance.
The Cliff Brown-trained filly was never on the track, racing wide and back throughout, yet powered home down the outside to finish a neck second.
She’ll be better for the experience and will strip fitter second-up.
Rewards And More is racing in great form and looks hard to beat off the inside gate.
The Jerome Hunter-trained gelding found the line strongly to win by half a length over 1000m at Bendigo first-up.
He backed that up last start with a strong performance on The Heath track where he registered the fastest 800m/600m and 400m closing splits of the day to finish a neck second to the speedy Fickle.
He’ll strip fitter and won his only previous third-up race.
The Fixer has been racing in great form this preparation and kicked off his campaign with a strong win over 1000m at the Sunshine Coast despite racing three wide.
He then gave a massive sight on the Sunshine Coast Poly when fighting tooth and nail to miss in a head bobbing finish.
The Jack Bruce-trained gelding found the line strongly over 1100m here last start to finish 1.7 lengths third.
He finally draws a good gate and I’d expect Jake Bayliss to make full use of barrier 1.
Just Flying is only lightly raced and has plenty of upside.
The Rob Heathcote-trained gelding settled handy and dashed strongly late to win his maiden by 1.5 lengths over this course and distance first-up.
He returned to Ipswich last start and gave a good account of himself to finish just under a length second to Star Act who has ability.
Jag Guthmann-Chester can give him the run of the race from the inside barrier.
