GREEN GATEWAY didn't go unnoticed on his reappearance at a higher level and he remains open to further improvement, especially in this lower grade. Recent maiden winners NIGHTRAIN and FREEDOM FIGHTER are also improving 3yo colts with the means to play leading roles. ONE LINER and STAR MAJOR are also lightly raced and have scope for improvement too, but they have already shown enough to be competitive. Returning GREEN GARNET, ESCARPMENT and SHOWGIRL (reserve) complete the shortlist.
