1. Bright Eyed Girl | Has placed in two runs from three this campaign and faded to finish on the winners' heels last start at Scone. Won't be far away in the run. Should be right in the finish. |
2. Bouncer | Unsighted at only start at Gosford on a soft track. Not in this. |
3. All At Sea | Resumes after a 23 week spell and first start for a new trainer. Has shown potential in trials. Needs the breaks. |
4. Circus Bound | Finished five lengths off the winner last start at Taree on a heavy track and has two placings from three runs this prep. Likely to race on the speed. Go well. |
5. Discompose | Back from let-up and trial placing in 44 days since last race adds confidence. Placed once this prep at Tamworth. Among the main chances. |
6. First Fleet | Yet to break out of maiden grade after 24 attempts but amongst the placegetters last start running third at Hawkesbury. Won't be far away in the run. Place hope. |
7. Gerwig | First-up after 38 week break and first start for a new trainer. A 14 start maiden. Hard to have. |
8. My Kristine | Yet to place in six attempts and disappointing last start at Port Macquarie on a soft track when first up. Carrying less weight but still prefer to watch go around. |
9. Sarcophagus | Ran 10th last start at Gosford when fresh and will have to carry an extra 1.5kg. Looking elsewhere. |
10. Therapy | Ran seventh last start at Muswellbrook but placed once this prep at Coffs Harbour. A winning chance. |
11. Timor Road | A 14 start maiden and disappointing last start at Newcastle on a soft track. Down in distance. Hard to get enthused. |
