Plenty of pressure with Artillery Fire, Novalargo and Rawabi leading the charge. ILOVETHISTOWN (2) was an easy Maiden winner here from the pace and then was a touch disappointing jumping an equal favourite at Hobart. Has a low gate today and a key jockey switch with the in-form Byrne Burke replacing the 3kg apprentice. Peaks now and can get back on track. BAD ALIBI (7) races forward and was narrowly beaten three times before delivering the deserved Maiden win this track/trip. Will carry just 53.5kg with the claim and has gate speed. She can go on with it now. ACCUSAIENT (5) rates similarly off a Hobart Maiden win. Fitter again and Newitt sticks. Has winning claims as well. ROUNDLE PARK (3) showed better form at Hobart and maps well. The 3kg claim brings him into it. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Ilovethistown.
