Genuine tempo from Sunset Drive leading Territory Dreamer. VILLAINESS (10) finished second first-up at Moree then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at Gulgong over 1000m when beaten 2.75 lengths. Blinkers added this time. Best form stacks up nicely and deserves another chance. METEOR MIST (8) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Tamworth when running eighth. Nicely placed to improve here. ABATED BREATH (1) did little when eleventh over 1200m at Warren last start, a less impressive effort than his first-up fourth at Parkes the run before. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. SUNSET DRIVE (3) safely held when eighth in a 1400m contest at Gulgong two weeks ago. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects. SUGGESTED PLAY: Villainess looks well placed for this.
