VALADORE (8) has been plying her trade in harder races down south and will appreciate the drop back in company here. Rock-hard fit now fourth-up from the break and will be right there when the judge calls a halt. MIGHTY CONQUEROR (2) is at the races for the first time but has placed in both local trials and this is not an overly strong affair. Respect any market push. VAN DER WOODSEN (9) has the most race experience in this line-up and gets some weight relief with the 1.5kg claim. Can earn some minor money. ONLY CRUNCHIE (3) importantly draws the inside alley here on debut and may feature in the finish. JOT GIRL (6) next best.

Three-year-old gelding (Invader - Royal Applause) who was bought for AUD $3,250 (Inglis 2025 JULY (Early) Online Sale). Half-brother to three-start maiden The Real Diva. Dam was a winner of six races and Group 2 performed. He has three recent trials prior to his debut today. Ran 3rd in a Townsville trial over 850m on January 6. No surprise to see him in the finish.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old gelding by Shooting To Win out of Crunchie. Dam was a five-start maiden. At the most recent trial finished sixth on December 15 at Hawkesbury over 800m. Makes debut on home course and importantly has a nice gate so worth watching for any market confidence.
