MARK DONNELLY CONSTRUCTIONS COUNTRY BOOSTED MAIDEN PLATE 1100m
Hot Extraction and Juliet Bravo should lock horns early at a strong tempo. FEIMAZUO (5) consistent filly with her hoof on the till. Resumed for second prep with an eye catching second over 1000m at Wellington on April 14. Finds a fairly weak maiden and expected to go one better today. HOT EXTRACTION (1) fitter after two runs back and much better effort when sat on the speed for a fighting second over 1290m at Orange on April 19. Lugging bit comes off and has the speed to get across from the wide gate. Go close. WESTBROOK (2) surprised at big odds on resumption when rattled late to secure second over 1000m at Queanbeyan on April 22. A repeat of latest brings him right into calculations. POLENS (9) has race fitness on her side after making ground late when fifth over 1100m at this track on April 25. Backs-up quickly and has claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Feimazuo to win. |

MACQUARIE MEDI SPA MAIDEN HANDICAP 1200m
Solid tempo with Firealarm possessing the dash to work to the lead. GIGI FILLE (9) handy mare resuming after a four month break. Raced in stronger company last time in and since fitted with two trials. Down sharply in grade for this and should prove hard to hold out. NAMOI RIVER (2) nice return when found the line late to secure second over 1200m here on February 29. Well drawn and should race closer from the good gate. RAINAGAIN (4) improving with racing and will find this more to his liking after tiring late when fourth over 1300m at Canberra on April 12. Cross-over nose band goes on and can run into the minor money. FIREALARM (10) resuming after a four-and-a-half month break. Stretched out in trip last time in and no surprise to see him sprint well fresh here with the one trial under the belt. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gigi Fille to win. |

TOOHEYS MAIDEN PLATE 1400m
Plenty of early pace from Hillbilly Pickin', Jennio's Filly and More Voltage primarily. TAIPAN LEGEND (7) looks ready to win fifth-up after sitting on the pace for a gritty close-up fourth over 1400m at Newcastle on April 24. This looks much easier and will take holding out. JAWHARAT DUBAI (9) Neasham-trained filly due for a change of luck. Finished in the minor money again when powered late to finish second over 1500m at Kembla Grange on April 20. Can race closer from the draw and go close. MORE VOLTAGE (5) on the quick back-up when jumped in trip for a fading sixth over 1600m at Hawkesbury on April 18. A repeat of his runs two and three back can see him take a hand in the finish. SHARE THE JOY (11) total forgive from the wide gate when a plugging seventh over 1350m at Wyong on April 11. Well drawn and sharp improvement is expected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Taipan Legend and Jawharat Dubai to fight out the finish. |

Pahang and Xeiby to take up the running at a strong tempo. ROMAN MISS (4) resumed with a slick victory at Orange before jumping in class when a plugging fourth over 1100m at Scone on April 16.

Strong late when sixth over 1010m at Orange two-and-a-half weeks ago. Senior rider on and looks a genuine top-three contender.
