Runner Comments

1. Eaten A Wire	Has placed in three runs from five this campaign and amongst the placegetters last start running third at Ballina on a soft track. Drawn perfectly. A winning chance.
2. Look A'like	Faded to finish six lengths off the winner last start at Ballina on a soft track and down in distance. Likely to race on the speed. Prefer others.
3. Pollard	Faded to finish ninth last start at Newcastle on a soft track but has two placings from three runs this prep. Returns to shorter trip. Commands serious thought.
4. Rock Odyssey	Faded to finish seven lengths off the winner last start at Lismore and placed when fresh. Won't be far away in the run. Hard to hold out.
5. Arewerichenuff	First-up after 25 week spell and won last trial at Port Macquarie. Awkwardly drawn. Hard to get enthused.
6. Dubai Eagle	Finished a neck back from the leader last start at Ballina on a soft track and should run fitter for past attempts. Needs the breaks.
7. Hypertension	Back after 26 week break and returns to shorter trip. Goes up in weight. Not keen.
8. Colour Chart	Slowly away 6-1/2 len last of 9 (8) $51.00 56.5 Spirit Of Vain 1110m Lismore Mdn Hcp Good(3) Aug 24. Eased near 800m 10-1/2 len 5th of 11 (8) $21.00 55.5 Shanjomi 1000m Ballina Mdn Soft(6) Jan 3.
9. La Roca	Resumes after a 17 week spell and placed when on debut at Grafton. Has the speed to overcome a very wide draw. One for wider exotics.
10. Lai See	Back from 27 week spell and gets the blinkers on for the first time. Should race on the speed. Solid claims.
11. Lasting Kiss	In the money at only start running second at Ballina on a soft track. Rates as one of the key chances.
12. Let Us Loose	Finished midfield at only start at Coffs Harbour on a heavy track. Seems unlikely.
13. Luminate	Rider lost whip 2-1/4 len 5th of 11 (9) $21.00 55.5 Innervoice 1006m Port Macquarie Mdn Plate Good(4) Nov 24. Failed to handle going 14-1/4 len 12th of 13 (1) $13.00 55.0 Superior Witness 1000m Taree Mdn Heavy(10) Dec 20.
14. Uchida	Has run in six races without placing. Likely to get a nice run behind the speed and has not won at Ballina previously. Prefer to watch go around.
15. More Than Buttons	First starter and won Coffs Harbour trial convincingly. Drawn out wide. Watch early betting.
16. Dragon Dream	First Start. By May'haab - Buchanan Girl. 11-1/2 len last of 9 (5) Northern Wilderose 810m Coffs Harbour Barrier Trl Heavy(10) Dec 30.
17. Two Better	Finished in the middle of the pack at only start at Coffs Harbour on a heavy track. An untried jockey and trainer combination. Looking to others.
18. Kentucky Grey	Raced wide without cover 9-1/4 len 9th of 12 (12) $21.00 59.0 Parksville 810m Coffs Harbour Mdn Heavy(10) Dec 30.
