1. Nothing's Sacred | Won last start at Tamworth on a soft track and gets the winkers on for the first time. Can't knock the form with two wins from four attempts this campaign. A winning chance. |
2. Chief Kidder | Faded to finish fifth last start at Warwick Farm on a soft track but racing back from metro track. Placed once this prep at Goulburn. One of the main hopes. |
3. Casirina | Won once this prep at Taree three runs back and finished strongly to end up midfield last start at Grafton. Robert Thompson has had success aboard previously. Tough to beat. |
4. Hustled | Ran six lengths back from the winner last start at Muswellbrook and no wins in three past runs at the track. Carrying 5.5kg more than last time. This looks too strong. |
5. Hendo's Magic | Has struggled in all three runs so far this campaign and faded to finish 14th last start at Hawkesbury. Big rise in weight. Not the worst. |
6. Scorched Land | Finished ninth last start at Muswellbrook but has run well on a softer track. Won once this prep at Taree three runs back. Place hope. |
7. Salsa Dreaming | Just missed at long odds last start at Muswellbrook. Expect to be right up there. |
8. Messina Magic | Last start winner to break maiden at Orange when first up and carrying less weight. Not the worst. |
9. Everly Girl | Unplaced in all five runs this prep and down in distance. Drawn ideally but still look to others. |
10. Dynamic Dynasty | Disappointing last start at Hawkesbury. Won't be far away in the run. Appears tested. |
