---|---|---|---|---|
Very keen early battle with Sisters Pick and Castlebar Road matching motors and there are a few others that can keep them busy. SMART AND DAPPER (3) classy gelding with the five wins from 16 starts. Close to his peak now after fading late when a tenacious third over 1100m at Scone in Bm82 grade on October 25. Finally drawn a good gate and should prove too sharp for these. DRIVING FORCE (1) tough type with sound figures over this trip. Hit the line late with the 60kg when an unlucky sixth over 1200m at Coonamble on October 13. Kept fresh and gets his chance from the gate. RAGING RUSH (4) disappointed in three runs back and worth one more chance in this company. Settled off the speed when a plugging eighth over 1100m at Coonabarabran last start. Distance suits and will add value to the exotics. LIFE'S A PARTY (5) found form at her last two outings and sure to be thereabouts again. Strong through the line when second over 1100m at Coonabarabran on October 27. Hard fit for this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Smart And Dapper to win.
