BUSK (2) Set the tempo when winning by a margin of 2 3/4L last start at this track and gets a favourable stall. Has shown early pace in races to date. Serious player. WAUHATCHIE (1) Overrun in the closing stages of the race when 4th last start here and has drawn the rails. Should race on the speed. Sophie Doyle is a key booking. One of the major players. FACTUM'S STAR (4) First up from a break of 29 weeks. Weakened under pressure when 7th last time at Belterra Park. Has the ability to turn things around but coming back in distance. Looks value and a good place bet. CHITWOOD (5) Racing fresh after a break. Faded to finish 12th last start at the track. In the mix.
