HIT THE SWITCH (1) resumes as the one to beat from a long break, with four placings from six starts and a Gold Coast third before the break that carried merit after he covered ground in a big field in what subsequently proved a hot form reference. Has been readied with a dominant Deagon trial win and gets the key booking of Benny Thompson. Bold showing anticipated. SPEEDY CROWN (3) hasn't done much wrong since resuming, just happening to find a few better ones but still giving his all. Shoulders a fitness edge and won't have to improve much to get off the mark this time THE AVIATOR (8) hasn't fired in two runs back but has gone back to the trials in-between runs and looked much better. Moor's booking suggests he may have figured it out. PRIVATE MAX (6) has placed in both runs back when sent out fav in country NSW. Should be nearing a peak effort now and is worth including.

Returns from a lengthy spell after closing last campaign with a third at Gold Coast, beaten just over two lengths in a 17-runner field despite covering ground and racing keenly. His Sunshine Coast fourth prior was also sound on soft ground, and an easy Deagon trial points to readiness. Prior Gold Coast placing had merit and he looks the horse to beat.

Was near the top of an open market at Ipswich first-up but began awkwardly, settled back and finished last, beaten just under nine lengths. He had shown more when sixth at Doomben, beaten just under three lengths after leading on soft ground. Track and 1200m place record helps, but a sharp turnaround is required.

Went close at this track on heavy ground last start, finishing second to Budda Bar after knuckling at the start and racing keenly midrace, beaten just over a length. That followed a fourth here over 1000m when again respected in betting. Race-fit, suited at 1200m and ready to win.

Returns from a two-month let-up following a head second at Warwick, where he led and was only caught late by Divinelle. His debut second at Toowoomba showed early promise too, and a second in a Toowoomba Inner Track trial keeps him ticking over. Country form rises in depth here, but he has clear place claims.

Resumed at Toowoomba and was beaten just over nine lengths on heavy ground, with some interference in the straight but only a moderate finish. A 2kg claim helps and he has placed at 1200m, yet the latest effort was well below what is required. The 2kg claim helps; much more is required.

Has returned with consecutive country seconds, most recently at Casino when sent out favourite and beaten just under a length by Raising Suspicion. His Lismore run prior was also solid after beginning awkwardly and finishing strongly. Country form has to translate, but he is an honest place hope.

Was unplaced on debut at this track, settling back at long odds before finishing seventh to Budda Bar, beaten four and a half lengths, with some hampering near the 400m. The $260,000 yearling is from the Tony Gollan yard and has a useful family page, but race evidence is still thin. He has to improve sharply second-up. Looking to others at this stage.

Has been safely held twice this campaign, but there are excuses: he raced wide when last behind Budda Bar at this track and struck interference at Doomben before that. Weight relief, an easy Doomben trial and Daniel Moor returning provide enough reasons to expect a better showing. He is a place player if he rebounds to his earlier maiden form. Worth some thought.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a fair fifth at Sunshine Coast, beaten just over six lengths when near the top of an open market. He was unwanted when second last at this track over 1000m before that after beginning slowly. Recent margins and a modest 1200m record keep him to rough place territory.
