Theres nothing to run them along. TWIGMAN (4) started favourite in a midweek race at Eagle Farm last start where he did his best work late to get up for fourth at the end of 1845m. Yet to miss the frame in three runs over today's journey and he loves the wet so there is plenty to like about his prospects. BARAZIN (1) hasn't fired in two runs this time in work, both at or around the mile on dry tracks. Prefers the sting out of the ground and this is a preferable distance so watch for sharp improvement. SHERRIFF CODY (6) is now more than a year without a win but recent efforts have been encouraging. Returned a strong figure when third in a Class 6 over 2200m at Grafton most recently. Good enough to trouble this field. CENOTES (7) has had a disappointing campaign but he gets down in the weights today and might be worth one more chance. INDIFFERENCE (2) has been plain of late but getting to this trip for the first time might be what he needs. SUGGESTED PLAY: Twigman to win.
