Strong pace from Bold Bender booting up from the rails draw to keep likely leader Deephar busy. IN MY DREAMS (9) is a handy filly back from a five-month spell. Transferred to Nathan Doyle from Michael Freedman over the break and looked good winning a recent Gosford trial for the new mentor. Performed well at the provincials last prep which is sure to stack up in this company. BOLD BENDER (3) defied the betting when runner-up on debut last start over this distance at Orange. Perfectly drawn and Ben Looker replaces a 4kg apprentice so it would be no surprise to see her go one better. SHEILA'S FANTA SEA (12) recovered from a slow start to pass a few in the straight on debut last time out over this trip at Taree. Capable of sharp improvement. DEEPHAR (4) resumes from an eight-month break for new trainer Neil Godbolt. Betting the key. DREAMS OF THUNDER (6) is better placed today dropping back in trip and going from the provincials to a country maiden. SUGGESTED PLAY: In My Dreams to win.
