THE FINAL DANCE (2) progressed off a resuming fourth to finish second from a wide barrier last start at Shepparton. Fitter again and could strike aided by a better draw. DUSTY PHILTRA (6) is back from a spell of five months and looks to be right up to the mark following a placing in a recent trial. Was consistent last time in, heading to the paddock off a string of top-four finishes. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. DANNARIE (4) lines up for the first time. By Poster Boy and hails from the McCullagh stable. Won his latest trial here so looking for a good debut. BEAU BECA (3) should also be ready to go in his first outing having won a recent trial here and he gets a good draw.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after showing early speed, behind Bite The Ear Mike at Mildura over 1790m in a MAIDEN on March 20 at $1.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Miss Doobee at Shepparton over 1690m in a MAIDEN on March 24 at $3.80. Draws well and looks close to a win.
