A solid tempo on the cards with Pluck 'N' Spy leading the way. LITLFELA (4) finds the maiden win elusive but does strike a thin contest this time. Was safely held at big odds last time at Parkes in what was a stronger maiden. Better suited this time and draws to get all the favours from the inside. Gets a good chance to finally get off the mark. ABATED BREATH (1) stuck on soundly into fourth when resuming at Parkes last time. Is sure to have come on from that and can play a more significant role on the quick back-up out to 1400m. RAYGUN ROCKS (11) never really looked likely last start after getting a long way back but was much better the start prior when chasing gamely into the placings at Narromine. Peaking now and is worth another go. PLUCK 'N' SPY (6) has been much better in his last two and is desperate to break through soon. Drawn sticky but can measure up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Slight lean to Litlfela.
