APOLLO RIDGE (1) returns after four-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 1300m at Newcastle. Placed in a recent trial. Ready for a bold run. RIVANA (4) settled towards the tail then wound up strongly to finish 1.5 lengths away in third when resuming last start over 1000m at this track. Will be a major player again. LADY OLENNA (2) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1000m at Scone, finishing second and beaten 1.3 lengths. Must be included among the main hopes. TRIPLE TRIPLE (11) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1100m at this track, beaten 3 lengths into sixth. Capable of featuring prominently.
