AAP

Tough and honest when just behind the minors in the 3yo+ Mdn at Hawkesbury second-up. Leads, handy. Coming back slightly in distance. Place preferred option.

ILB

Peaked in the closing stages when 4th last start at Hawkesbury. Should muster plenty of early speed. Could be in the mix.

Creditable effort to finish fourth, beaten less than a length 14 days ago (Hawkesbury) in a handicap.

RSIS

Overrun in the run home when 4th last time at Hawkesbury. Should muster plenty of early toe. Can't leave out of your calculations.

AAP

Hard to fault this mare. Prominent, showed plenty of ticker to just go under at Port Macquarie off extended spell. Better conditioned. Rates highly in this affair.

ILB

Was found wanting late when 3rd last run at Port Macquarie and promising career start. Has the speed to overcome the wide alley. Good potential.

Four-race maiden though does have a second place to her name; close up third over 5f at Port Macquarie (maiden) two weeks ago.

RSIS

Gave a strong sight when 3rd beaten by 1L last start at Port Macquarie and good career start. Has the early pace to burn across from the wide draw. Definite claims.

Trials (1:0-0-0). Dam retired unplaced. Just fair in only trial and needs to progress on race day. Benefit of decent alley. Hard to dive into on debut.

ILB

First race appearance 4yo by Sandbar for trainer Theresa Bateup. Ran 7th in a trial at Kembla Grange on Oct 7th. Keep your eye on the market.

First start under rules for this four-year-old daughter of Sandbar; can make a bold bid.

AAP

Battled home into 4th in the small field at Cootamundra. Tougher test from the draw. Others rate stronger.

ILB

Jumped at $5.00 and was making up some late ground when 4th last time at Cootamundra. Unlikely to feature.

Far from disgraced (beaten 3l) two weeks ago when back to 5½f at Cootamundra in a handicap; winless in six starts but has shown promise with third her top showing; facing a testing assignment and only limited appeal.

RSIS

Odds of 4/1 and improved when 4th last time at Cootamundra.

AAP

Very honest. Gallant display at Port Macquarie over this journey. Game second only other time over this track and distance. High on the shortlist.

ILB

Made considerable ground when 2nd beaten by 1L last start at Port Macquarie. Blinkers go on for the first time. Looking sharp on the track this preparation. Very capable of taking this out.

Has displayed improved form on last two starts but yet to open her account after ten starts; minor honours in a maiden 13 days ago (15-8, Port Macquarie).

RSIS

Solid run when finishing 2nd last run at Port Macquarie. Interesting gear change of blinkers on first time. Tracking very well recently. Very tidy performer.

Freshened. Ex C Maher in NSW. Safely contained at Taree on debut 22 Sep. Scope there but needs significant progress.

ILB

At $8.50 came in 7th last time at Taree but having second race start. Coming to a new trainer. Would rather look at others.

Could not finish better than seventh on her debut at Taree at 15-2 last month; representing new trainer today; progress needed on this second career run.

RSIS

Odds of 15/2 and came in 7th last time at Taree but having second race start. First start for a new trainer.

Early form encouraging. Chased in a good effort at Newcastle at his second race start. Comes back in trip a touch. Worth a look.

ILB

Rattled home nicely into 2nd last start at Newcastle and gets a favourable alley. Solid chance.

Not beaten far at Newcastle over 6½f (maiden) two weeks ago.

RSIS

Flashed home late into 2nd last start at Newcastle and can find a nice position from the draw. Strong claims.

Settled close, couldn't match winner but ran on for third at Moruya second-up. Good gate. All the better, sound claims.

ILB

Honest race when 3rd last start at Moruya. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Seems to be going the right way; not beaten far when third at Moruya three weeks ago.

RSIS

Tidy effort when 3rd last run at Moruya. Watch betting.

Zousain 3yo having first race start for Kris Lees. Finished 2nd in a barrier trial at Scone on Oct 7th. Watch betting.

From a stable with a solid record with newcomers; gelded already; should not be far away with signs of encouragement in profile.

Trials (5:0-0-3). $90k purchase. Out of a stakes-placed mare who won four races. Aided by latest trial placing. Drawn well. Follow betting leads.

ILB

3yo first starter by Playing God for Brad Widdup and gets the perfect draw. Ran 3rd in a trial at Wyong on Apr 24th. Respect the betting.

Sire can inject some quality; related to 1m winner Hey True Blue; has strong claims as some good aspects to her profile.

RSIS

Initial appearance 3yo by Playing God for Brad Widdup and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw.

Odds correct as at 2:30 am AEDT. Odds can change.
