AAP

Resuming (33-weeks). Seen in stronger company last campaign. Has some claims fresh in this affair.

ILB

Resumes after a spell of 33 weeks. Odds of $15.00 and peaked in the run home when 5th last run here but dropping back to a shorter trip. Difficult to warm to at present.

Finished fifth but wasn't beaten too far (3½l) over 1m here (handicap) in February; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

RSIS

Back from a break of 33 weeks. At 14/1 couldn't maintain the pace throughout when 5th last time at the track but back in trip.

AAP

Returns for second campaign (21-weeks). Broke his maiden over 1619m at Geraldton last campaign. Steps up in class but looks the testing material.

ILB

Resuming after a spell. Was much too speedy in front when winning by a margin of a nose last time at this venue and has a positive alley. Watch the betting.

Got home in front by a nose over 1m here (maiden) when getting off the mark at the fifth time of asking five months ago; signs of improvement on last two runs; entitled to respect.

RSIS

Back from break. Made all to win by a margin of a nose last start around here and has a good draw. Sharni Webster provides some weight relief. Not at all out of this race.

First-up (21-weeks). Not out of this fresh in this line-up.

ILB

Resumes after a break. Jumped at $16.00 and came in 6th last run at the track. Shows good early pace. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Not beaten that far in April; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

RSIS

First run back from a break. Was 15/1 and came in 6th last start around here. Will be positive in the run early. Respect the betting.

AAP

Backing up quickly. Prominent to 400m but threw the towel in quickly at Mingenew first run back. Can lead or take a sit. Regular under achiever.

ILB

On a short turnaround. Started at $20.00 and mediocre performance when 8th last start at Mingenew. Expected to rebound and will find this grade more suitable. Will be in the finish.

Subpar record of 1-21; was held in eighth (Mingenew) four days ago; others more appealing.

RSIS

On a short back up. Started 19/1 and was ordinary when 8th last start at Mingenew. Likely to bounce back and taking on a lower class of opponents. Should go close.

AAP

Resuming (26-weeks). Ex Jason Warren. Trained here now. Given some time to grow and mature after some mediocre runs in first two preps. Needs to see a betting push at stable debut.

ILB

Resumes from a 26 week break. Didn't threaten when 6th last time at Sale but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Not hopeless.

Beaten 12l in sixth upped to 7f six months ago at Sale in a maiden; few miles on the clock with this his fourth race; starts out for new trainer; not hard to turn elsewhere.

RSIS

Resumes after a 26 week break. Didn't find the line when 6th last start at Sale but drawn by the rails. Blinkers go off for the first time.

Resuming (37-weeks). Hard to make a case off the long break.

ILB

First run back from a 37 week break. Odds of $9.00 and underwhelming when 6th last time here and will be down in distance. Sound chance.

She meets the required standard ability wise and has arguably shown improved form the last twice; not far behind Blood Saint when sixth over 1m here (handicap) in January; chance if duplicating the form of her most recent win.

RSIS

Racing fresh after a break of 37 weeks. Was 8/1 and not competitive when 6th last run at this venue and will be down in distance.

Let-up (77-days). Sent forward but flat-footed when things got serious at Bunbury. Nice gate. Will take a power of beating fresh in this line-up.

ILB

Racing on a quick back up. Was $16.00 and ran 5th last run at Bunbury but stepping down to a lower level.

RSIS

Backs up quickly. Started 15/1 and finished 5th last time at Bunbury but goes down in grade.

Let-up (55-days). Ex Darren Taylor in WA. Failed to threaten at Northam for new stable following market easing. Can play a role.

ILB

Let up. At $41.00 couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last run at Northam but matched against a less competitive field. First start for a new trainer. Could feature here.

First-time blinkers no help at Northam over 6½f (handicap) when beaten 10l last month; representing new stable today; leading claims if finding her best form.

RSIS

Back from a freshen up. Started 40/1 and couldn't stay in touch when 7th last run at Northam but matched against less formidable competition. First start for a new trainer.

AAP

Ran on soundly from midfield at Kalgoorlie. Fit from racing, has some claims.

ILB

Jumped at $41.00 and made some ground when 4th last start at Kalgoorlie. Large claim helps. Form will be tested here.

Respectable effort in defeat (beaten 2l) at Kalgoorlie over 6½f (handicap) ten days ago; by no means ruled out if reproducing most recent effort.

RSIS

Odds of 40/1 and outpaced some runners late when 4th last run at Kalgoorlie. The large claim from Jason Li helps.

Comments

AAP

First-up (23-weeks). Gets in light. Warrants attention fresh in this company.

ILB

Fresh after a break. Picked up late ground when 3rd last run at the track. One that represents value at a decent price.

Gave good account to finish third here over 5½f (handicap, split Gold Lightning and Big Bopper) in April; only once has he got into the winners' enclosure.

RSIS

First run back after a break. Ran home into 3rd beaten by 2L last start at the track. Looks a nice proposition.

Odds correct as at 3:40 am AEST. Odds can change.
