No recognised leader engaged so one of the newcomers may take it up. BAKHITA (10) impressed on debut two back at Tamworth then did a lot of work after a slow start and was only beaten 3.2 lengths over this course and distance last time. Capable of taking this out if she jumps away with them. GUSTAV (2) recorded his fourth minor placing from seven starts when he finished third as favourite over 1280m at Muswellbrook eight days ago. Racing well and only needs to hold that form to be a major player. GRANDINI (8) is back from a 19-week lay-off. Best of three runs in the maiden campaign was a tidy second over 1300m at this track. Expecting a positive return to racing following a trial win here recently. YOU THINK YOU KNOW (6) is a So You Think first starter from the Brett Cavanough stable. Won a recent trial at this track by a good margin. Looks to have his share of ability. OCTERN (9) didn't do much in her first campaign but a good trial here on 30 October is a promising sign. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Bakhita.
