Beneath The Rock (2)
1.80
Metro Petroleum (Bm72) at Canterbury brings together a competitive field of fillies and mares over 1250m on a Good 4 track under overcast skies. The jump is scheduled for 9:30 pm AEDT. Looking at the win market order, Beneath The Rock sits at the head of affairs, followed closely by Kujenga, Hellabella, and Hush Hush, with Crimson Wings, Premium, and Midnight Luna rounding out the remaining runners in the market.
The case for the market leader Beneath The Rock is built on a tidy two wins from four starts record, including a solid third last time out in a 3up bm72 hcp over 1300m at Warwick Farm after scoring at Newcastle. Drawn in barrier 1 for K A Lees with William A Stewart aboard, this leader maps to get an economic trail. Meanwhile, Kujenga comes in off a solid fourth at Warwick Farm over 1100m following a run at Rosehill, and with James Mc Donald taking the mount from barrier 5 for trainers Annabel and Rob Archibald, the map position looks well-suited.
For those hunting further value, Hush Hush resumes after an 18-week break for trainer C Maher, featuring a trial at Rosehill and a strong first-up record previously, while Hellabella goes forward from barrier 7 after a Hawkesbury win and a stint at Warwick Farm. The speed map points to Beneath The Rock and Hellabella pressing forward early from their respective gates, setting up an intriguing battle over the 1250m trip where finding the right overs could prove crucial in a race of this depth.

ILB
Charged home to win last start at Warwick Farm and gets a favourable gate. Showing improvement in recent outings.
RP
Landed a narrow success in a handicap last month (Warwick Farm); her victims included Kujenga, Hellabella and Premium; has winning form at this track; cannot be ignored.
RSIS
Romped home to win last run at Warwick Farm and will try to take advantage of the draw. Getting better in recent performances.

Won two from four. On speed, had enough in the tank for the minors 3yo+ (Bm72) at Warwick Farm second-up. Drawn to get an economic trail and highly rated.
ILB
Good result placing 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last start at Warwick Farm and promising career start. Has run into the money at every start this preparation. Great chance.
RP
Gave good account to finish third (Warwick Farm) last month; winner of two of her four career runs; leading claims.
RSIS
Solid run on the pace before weakening to finish 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last time at Warwick Farm and showing consistent performance in races. Drawn by the rails. Very capable of taking this out.

ILB
Jumped at $17.00 and moved through the field into 4th last start at Warwick Farm. More confidence with jockey James Mcdonald guiding the horse. Has every chance.
RP
Wasn't beaten that far when fourth (beaten just under 2l) at Warwick Farm over 5½f (handicap) last month; has a record of 1-16; James McDonald booking heightens interest; not been able to get her head in front lately so others make more appeal.
RSIS
Odds of 16/1 and made ground when closing off to finish 4th last run at Warwick Farm. Jockey James Mcdonald is an asset. Will be in the finish.

Solid 60.5kg winner at Hawkesbury 8 Oct. Just off leading division but outpaced when it mattered at Warwick Farm. Awkwardly drawn but has enough speed and worth thought.
ILB
Jumped at $17.00 and was well beaten when 7th last run at Warwick Farm. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Best to watch and see.
RP
Fair effort when just under 3l seventh to Manukau at Warwick Farm over 5½f (handicap) two weeks ago.
RSIS
Was 16/1 and couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last run at Warwick Farm. Has plenty of early pace.

ILB
First up from a break of 18 weeks and picked up nicely to win first up last preparation at Kembla Grange. Possesses good finishing speed. Dropping in grade. Definite contender.
RP
Not beaten that far over 1m at Sunshine Coast (Group 3) in July; layoff to overcome; should be thereabouts if finding her best form and down in grade.
RSIS
Resuming and strong effort to the line to win resuming last preparation at Kembla Grange. Expected to be flashing home. Back in an easier grade. Down in trip. Strong claims in this.

ILB
Fresh after a break. Jumped at $13.00 and didn't attack the line when 6th last run at this venue and dropping back to a shorter trip. Reasonable chance.
RP
A proven winner with a career wins-runs record of 4-16; held in sixth over 1m1½f here (handicap) in May; returns from a layoff here; not hard to turn elsewhere.
RSIS
First run back after a break. Was 12/1 and gave away some ground when 6th last time at this track and dropping in distance. Should be in the finish.

RP
Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Warwick Farm (beaten just over 3l) over 5½f (handicap) last month; hard enough to fancy as needs headgear to provoke some improvement.

Was 80/1 and below par when 9th last run at Warwick Farm. Interesting gear change of blinkers on first time.

Battled home into 4th in the small field at Hawkesbury after speccing from $6.50 into $4.80. Sticky draw to negotiate. Place only.
ILB
Jumped at $4.80 and weakened under pressure when 4th last start at Hawkesbury and up against tougher rivals. Should jump out and bowl along.
RP
Brings winning C&D form to the table; out of the frame (beaten just under 4l in fourth) over 5½f at Hawkesbury (handicap) 17 days ago; possible squeak with so many of these having something to prove and had excuses last time (crowded).
RSIS
Started 4/1 and faded to finish 4th last run at Hawkesbury and facing a stronger class. Should muster plenty of early pace.
