Genuine tempo with the speedy Lucky Bay and Spencer's Spirit matching motors. HOW MUCH BETTER (2) lightly raced All Too Hard gelding with a stack of upside. Jumped in trip second-up when a gritty second over 1500m at Kembla Grange on November 16. Looks suited on the Hawkesbury track and can stalk the solid speed. Great chance to break through. NANTUCKET ISLAND (6) won well on her return here two runs back, then jumped in grade when sixth to the promising Concordia Wind over 1500m at Rosehill in BM72 grade on November 13. Expected to bounce back to form from the inside draw. JACOB'S TIME (1) fifth-up for this and will relish the 3kg claim again after drifting back when sixth over the unsuitable 1200m at Kembla Grange a week-and-a-half ago. Back to his favoured trip and sure to be thereabouts. LUCKY BAY (3) was sent to town last time out when a fading fifth over 1900m at Canterbury in BM64 class on November 20. Expecting a better showing here. SUGGESTED PLAY: How Much Better to win.
