Trainer Rod Northam is banking on Spiranac’s third placing in last year’s Kosciuszko being enough to remind prospective slot holders of her ability as she won't have raced prior to Friday’s slot winner draw.

Wagga horseman Gary Colvin will head to Rosehill with three runners, his biggest representation at a Sydney Saturday metropolitan meeting.

The Terry Robinson-trained Art Cadeau has arrived in the final bounds to win The Kosciuszko.

The omens are as compelling as the form lines for Rod Northam’s connections with Tango Stepz ($51 on TAB), his TAB Highway stablemate to his The Kosciuszko contender Spiranac ($9) on a fabulous The TAB Everest occasion at Royal Randwick on Saturday.

If trainer Rod Northam’s estimation that Spiranac has improved two lengths with her winter break is right then she could race herself into contention for The Kosciuszko at Randwick on Saturday.
