Decent sized field but it lacks any obvious pace. RASP (6) is busting to win and just missed two back as a $2.90 favourite at Warwick Farm. He's well placed in this contest and rated the one they have to beat. GEE AND TEE (9) peaks and is heading in the right direction. Maps for a soft run, and the blinkers are on for the first time. An each way chance. HERE LADY THINKABELL (10) was last seen 44 days ago placing at the Sunshine Coast. She was narrowly beaten there three back and is likely to be presented forward. COMES WOZZA (2) has been narrowly beaten at her last two starts and expect him to push forward today. A hope with average luck in the run. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Rasp.
