Pace only fair with Na Hamah rolling to the lead ahead of In Bocca Al Lupe and Elton. FRATIANNO (3) finds his race at start nineteen on the quick backup. Warmed up late with the 59kg when second over 1000m at Taree. Ready to salute over the 1200m. ELTON (2) went better than his price suggested on debut with a close up fourth over 1000m at Taree. Has more to offer and Buckley sticks. ZO FRILLING (12) gave away a big start second up when he savaged the line to finish fifth over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Leading prospect with the 2kg claimer aboard. IN BOCCA AL LUPE (4) is stepping out at this circuit for the first time. Last appeared when he finished second over 1250m at Ballina on August 11. Can give this a shake. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fratianno is expected to go close.
