TRY CATCHING ME (3) made an encouraging return after four-and-a-half months when 7 metres away in second at this circuit and distance. Has clearly come back in good order and should enjoy an economical run from this draw. Fitter so can go one better. WANTED POSTER (2) is at the track for the first time. By Poster Boy and hails from the Grace Panella stable. Has won a couple of trials coming into this and should have no excuses from this advantageous draw. BULL SHARK (4) has finished in the top-four the last three times he raced at this venue. Go well again. SPOOKY ART (10) cops a tricky draw but did a good job last week, improving to finish third at this circuit.

Second-up here following a spell. Solid effort when 2nd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track was 4th-5.66 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Truthbetold (1:59.30) in MAIDEN on January 13 at $2.30. Fitter and draws well so could go one better.

Didn't do much last start, was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr4) over 1980m at this track beaten 24 m by Coral Cays (2:27.50) in 0-1 WIN on January 29 at $126. Before that 8th (Fr2) over 1980m at this track beaten 35 m by Very Needy (2:26.70) in NR up to 45 on January 13 at $101. Comes into this in ordinary form. Must improve.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Very Needy at this track over 1980m in a NR up to 45 on January 13 at $21. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Coral Cays at this track over 1980m in a 0-1 WIN on January 29 at $4. Can improve. Can play a role in the finish again.
