Comments

AAP

Resuming (21-weeks). Competitive at this level last prep. Can challenge again fresh in this affair.

ILB

Fresh today. Competitive effort when 3rd last run around here. Should muster plenty of early toe. Can feature in this event.

Out of the frame (beaten 4½l in third) over 1m here (handicap) in April; has scored over C&D; back from an absence here; every chance.

RSIS

Back from a break. Came in 3rd last run at the track. Should muster plenty of early toe.

AAP

Let-up (69-days). Off pace, no response and trudged home at Northam over longer test. Gets all the favours from ace draw. Profiles strongly.

ILB

First up from a break of 9 weeks and showed a good turn of foot when 3rd first up last preparation at Belmont. Chance and can measure up.

A disappointing tenth when second favourite in July at Northam upped to 1m3f; useful in this grade; capable if in the mood so can make a bold bid.

RSIS

Resuming and claimed a spot in the placings when 3rd resuming last preparation at Belmont. Has a good draw. Down in trip. Rates as one of the key chances.

AAP

Started $15 when safely held in BenchMark 56+ company at Carnarvon. Look for a better showing.

ILB

At $15.00 didn't threaten when 8th last start at Carnarvon. Going well this preparation. The large claim from Jason Li should help. Looks hopeful.

Not far behind Tango Rhythm when eighth (Carnarvon) two weeks ago; this is his grade.

RSIS

Was 14/1 and well beaten when 8th last run at Carnarvon. Racing consistently lately. Large claim helps.

Comments

AAP

Didn't quite finish it off the last bit in Class 5 company at Bunbury. Can go forward. Back in easier class. Deep into his campaign, right in the mix.

ILB

Outmuscled in the closing stages of the race when 4th last run at Bunbury. Expecting to settle positively. Represents value at a price.

Respectable effort to finish fourth, beaten just over 2l over 6f at Bunbury (handicap) 13 days ago; does not win very often.

RSIS

Was found wanting late when 4th last time at Bunbury. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Represents significant value.

AAP

Snagged back and worked home okay in 3yo+ (Bm56+) at Carnarvon. Right in the mix.

ILB

Odds of $4.20 and inched into 5th last start at Carnarvon and has drawn to do little work. Madi Derrick has been successful aboard previously. Very capable of taking this out.

She meets the required standard ability wise; finished fifth two weeks ago albeit only beaten just under 4l (Carnarvon); in the mix as she knows how to get the job done.

RSIS

Odds of 10/3 and moved ahead of some to finish 5th last start at Carnarvon and drawn well. Madi Derrick has multiple wins aboard. Will go very close.

AAP

Fresh. Long winless run. Fair effort without threatening at Carnarvon. Others more persuasive.

ILB

Started at $7.00 and finished 4th last run at Carnarvon. Finishes off strongly. Tara Atherden provides some weight relief. Difficult to warm to at present.

Respectable effort when fourth over 1m at Carnarvon (handicap) four weeks ago; winner of three races at this venue; others more likely as not in the habit of winning recently.

RSIS

Was 6/1 and ran 4th last start at Carnarvon. Has a great burst of pace late. Tara Atherden takes a large claim.

Odds correct as at 2:40 am AEST. Odds can change.
