MRS BULL (11) strong win two back before dropping in trip when sixth over 1200m at Warren on November 10. Reunites with Mikayla Weir who won on her two back. Can take a hand in the finish. FIRESTORM BOY (14) lone win came over this trip and not that far away when fifth over 1200m at Dubbo three weeks ago. Smart when right and expected to go close.
