She's Enuff and The Coat Hanger to take it up. MERAPI (3) was returning from a break last time out and proved too classy, scoring by 1.2 lengths over 1210m at this track. Open to plenty of improvement and will be a tough nut to crack again. UNINSURABAL (8) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when eighth, beaten 14 lengths, over 1624m at Taree. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. GOLDEN BREEZE (9) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Taree, finishing third and only 1.2 lengths from the winner at the end of 1270m. Looks well placed so expect a bold display. BETTER YET (1) set to peak and back in grade after running fifth over 1540m at the Gold Coast Poly. Each way player on the backup. SUGGESTED PLAY: Merapi to win.
