1. My Blue Jeans | On a six day back-up. Beaten easily last start at Kembla but takes a 4kg claim, not keen. |
2. Zelago | Short back-up of six days and has very strong form at Canberra. Won once this prep at the track three runs back. Commands serious thought. |
3. Black Wand | Resumes from a 21 week spell and has the benefit of a Wagga Wagga trial. Down in distance. Unlikely. |
4. Royal Monarch | Finished a length back from the leader last start at Canberra and drawn ideally. Has placed in three runs from three this campaign. Consider. |
5. Perfect Pitch | Has placed in three runs from nine this campaign and placed twice at Canberra but been unable to get a win. Down in distance. Big chance. |
6. Lolita Gold | First-up after 17 week break and down in distance. Very strong form here. Place only. |
7. Ons Vier | Won once this prep at Corowa four runs back and faded to finish fifth last start at Canberra on a soft track but commands respect. |
8. El Prados | Coming to a new trainer and in strong form with two wins from three attempts this campaign. Goes down in weight. Can threaten. |
