1. King Tat | Faded to finish seventh last start at Wagga Wagga but still at least a place chance here. |
2. Burnt Patch | Finished ninth last start at Sapphire Coast on a soft track when fresh. Looks tested. |
3. California Vanture | Faded to finish 19 lengths off the winner last start at Randwick on a soft track and is carrying a lot more weight. Racing back from metro track. Not the worst. |
4. Katie's Moet | Unplaced in career and finished sixth last start at Gundagai. Has trialed in 17 days since last run but still hard to get enthused. |
5. Mogarto | Finished sixth last start at Canberra but has two placings from four runs this prep. Must respect. |
6. Rendezvous Creek | A 10 start maiden but drawn perfectly. Rise in distance a concern. Not in this. |
7. Your Hand In Mine | Has placed in two runs from four this campaign and amongst the placegetters last start running third at Gundagai. Forward showing no surprise. |
8. Mandalong Beyond | Let-up for six weeks. Was able to place at long odds last start at Hawkesbury. Big chance. |
