THE RELUCTANT STAR (7) debuted at Geelong and won quite well, sitting on the pace and going on strongl to score by 1 length. Has more upside than these and doesn't need to improve a whole lot to be winning again. FREAK OF NATURE (6) was just even first up but disappointing at Ballarat last time. He's been freshened and won a trial well since. His best form last time in would go a long way to winning this and he can bounce back strongly. ROTOKURA (3) has been solid in two runs back from a spell and should be ready to peak now. Up to 1100m suits. TRUE NOBILITY (4) has been racing okay of late and is fresh for the drop in trip where he has a strong record. Can figure. ENTREMET (5) was good first up and should be thereabouts.
