Solid tempo anticipated with Beach Princess and Fox Reign pressing forward with Magic Shannon not far away. RATHORAN (5) deserved the Maiden with three back and was back on track last time beaten 1.2L at Muswellbrook. Looker goes on and he's well placed to be winning. FOX REIGN (4) was beaten 3L here having his third outing for the new stable. He has provincial form good enough and is a hope. QUINKY DEEL (1) didn't have the best of it second-up and will be around the mark with a handy 3kg claim. MAGIC SHANNON (9) registered her maiden success three back but has missed the placings at the last two appearances, most recently when fifth here. Can feature. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Rathoran.
