Genuine tempo with Smart 'N' Ritzy to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. GERETY (1) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1000m at Goondiwindi after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within her grasp. RIVALDO (10) resumes. Finished sixth over 1300m at Armidale last October. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal with the claim. LILY BOBTAIL (4) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 22 starts. Was again denied last start when she found a couple better over 1000m at Tuncurry. Clayton Gallagher gets the best out of this five-year-old mare. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. SMART 'N' RITZY (12) was out of the money when resuming over 1000m at Gilgandra. Fitter and watch for a better performance from the draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gerety looks ready to win.
