---|---|---|---|---|
Several of these have good gate speed so a strong tempo is expected. NO RAGRETS (5) has been around the mark without winning before breaking through with an easy all the way win at Ballina last week on heavy ground. Could go on with it now. HIDDEN HAIL (1) gave a big sight when leading and holding on for a placing in a much improved showing. If he can repeat that sort of effort he's in the mix. VOCATION (7) looks to be back in some kind of form with a much improved placing at Inverell and has the chance to go on with it. HUMPHREE BEAR (2) is worth including in the chances as he's better than what he showed fresh and MAWSONS EXPEDITION (3) would be the next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: No Ragrets to win.
