AAP

Sent forward and stuck to the task bravely in the Hcp (C1) at Narromine. Lone victory was over this trip. Major player here.

ILB

Close to claiming the win last run at Narromine. Always seems to find the line well. Major chance.

Went down by a neck over 6f at Narromine (handicap) last month; interesting if reproducing most recent effort.

RSIS

Right up there last run at Narromine. Will be hitting the line strongly. Will run close.

Comments

AAP

First-up (29-weeks). In the minors at Gilgandra first-up last campaign. Drawn to effect. Makes strong appeal fresh in this affair.

ILB

First up from a break of 29 weeks and nice run when 2nd first up last preparation at Gilgandra. Likely to be well placed early. Could be in the mix.

She meets the required standard ability wise; didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Warren (beaten just under 5l) over 6f (handicap) in March; back from an absence here; strong contender as shown she can win fairly recently.

RSIS

Resuming and competitive effort when 2nd resuming last preparation at Gilgandra. Has good tactical pace and will be nicely positioned. Jockey Clayton Gallagher and trainer Brett Robb can't be overlooked. Can't leave out of your calculations.

AAP

Sent forward and stuck to the task bravely in rain affected going in the Hcp (C1) at Dubbo. Only win to date was this distance. Fit from racing, among the dangers again.

ILB

On a quick back up. Competed in a tight contest last run at Dubbo and form has been improving over recent runs. Should come to hand quickly. Place claims at best.

Had two of these rivals behind her over 5f at Dubbo (handicap) when a close second last week; achieved only a sole win.

RSIS

Backs up quickly. Close to a win last time at Dubbo on a heavy surface and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Will be pushing for a forward position early.

AAP

Finished within striking distance Hcp (C1) at Dubbo for new trainer. Lands in a suitable contest.

ILB

On a short back up. Started at $9.00 and made up ground when 4th last time at Dubbo on a heavy rated track and has a positive barrier. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

Has largely been consistent of late; useful in this grade; not beaten too far (just over 1l) over 5f at Dubbo (handicap) last week on debut for this trainer; assuming she steps up from most recent effort then one to take seriously.

RSIS

On a quick turnaround. Odds of 8/1 and passed some rivals in the late stages when 4th last start at Dubbo on a heavy track. Major chance.

AAP

Handy but gave away tamely at Dubbo off extended spell. Better conditioned. Went close only other go this course and trip. Key player if things pan out.

ILB

Started at $41.00 and weakened to finish 10th last start at Dubbo but will appreciate the drop in class. Should muster plenty of early speed. Gets some weight taken off. Entitled to be a big price.

Beaten 8l last month at Dubbo in a conditions race; others are preferred as has a lot on her plate here.

RSIS

Was 40/1 and tailed off to finish 10th last time at Dubbo but challenged by less formidable competitors. Won't be far away during the run.

Secured third in a staggered finish at Come By Chance. First time around Forbes. Back from picnics.

ILB

Came in 3rd last start at Come By Chance and drawn the rails. Interesting to see the blinkers go off for the first time. Pass at this stage.

Not disgraced when third of five at Come By Chance over 6f (handicap) two weeks ago; others are preferred.

RSIS

Looked good when 3rd last start at Come By Chance and has minimal work to do from the stall. Interesting gear change of blinkers off first time.

Well back and never sighted at Dubbo off long break as an odds drifter. Has an adverse draw. First time around Forbes. Others more persuasive.

ILB

Backing up quickly for this race. Tailed off to finish 12th last time at Dubbo. Capable of a strong comeback. Interesting gear change of tongue tie off first time. Strong claims.

Last of 12 over 5f at Dubbo (handicap) behind two of these last Friday; has shown glimpses of ability recently and looks interesting.

RSIS

Backing up quickly for this race. Weakened under pressure when 12th last start at Dubbo on a heavy surface. Overlooking the last run. Definite winning chance.

On pace but found little at the business end at Dubbo over longer test. Seems to prefer it dry. Switching to 1100m. Super fit from racing, can make his presence felt.

Comments

AAP

Let-up (49-days). Not disgraced at Cobar second-up at $8. Others with stronger claims.

ILB

Back from a freshen up. Started $10.00 and below par when 7th last start at Cobar. Tough race, will need luck.

Solid run when seventh at Cobar 49 days ago in a conditions race; a lot on her plate here and hard enough to fancy.

RSIS

Back from a freshen up. Started at 9/1 and below par when 7th last start at Cobar.

Odds correct as at 2:51 am AEDT. Odds can change.
