Pace only fair with On Any Tuesday rolling to the lead ahead of Brannum and Majestic Roca. SUNSPRITE (7) improving filly desperate for a bit of ground. Closed strongly from back in the field first-up with a slashing third over 1500m at Newcastle. Leading apprentice hops on and maps to get the right run. ON ANY TUESDAY (6) third-up today and gives the impression this trip will suit. Sat on the tempo before peaking late with a modest fifth over 1450m at this track. Gets the gun run and expected to go close. BRANNUM (1) has put together back-to-back placings as he gradually steps-up in trip. Taken to the front with the 59kg for a game third over 1600m at Canberra. Looks up to these with the 59kg. CHAITHNIA (8) in need of the run first-up with a battling fifth as fav over 1400m at Mudgee in a Super Maiden. Ash Morgan sticks and can take a hand in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sunsprite should come into her own over this trip.
