Expecting Vicious Rumour to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip.
ABATED BREATH (8) came with a huge finish to be beaten under a length over this distance at Armidale two back. Stepped up quickly to 1500m last start at Muswellbrook and he was found wanting. Back in his right race today and with luck from the wide gate he can open the account. KEVIN (1) just missed on debut two back at Dubbo then started favourite but gave away too much start here at this trip last time. Handy three-year-old who will enjoy the strong tempo anticipated here and can easily finish over the top of them. NUCLEAIRE (10) led and just failed to hold on over today's journey at Armidale two back. Less effective most recently when scaled back to 1000m. Worth another chance. VICIOUS RUMOUR (7) travelled on the speed and gave a good kick to hold onto a minor placing eight days ago over this track and distance. That was her first outing in seven months so there should be improvement to come. MONTY ROAD (2) found 900m too slick on debut last time. Another likely improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Abated Breath.

VICIOUS RUMOUR
MICHAEL MULHOLLAND 4YO BLACK MARE 57.0KG M R Mulholland, D M Byrne & D Kotel Second run back. First-up after eight months raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at this track Super Mdn-Sw on November 16 over 1100m, 1.0 len behind Chappolicious carrying 57kg at $7.50. Previously second-up 5th of 14 at this track F&M Mdn-Sw on March 28 over 1100m, 3 len behind Party Prophet with 57.5kg at $1.40. Will be better for that run and with luck from the wide gate is a definite contender. |

ABATED BREATH
BRETT & GEORGIE CAVANOUGH 3YO BAY GELDING 56.0KG G Harvey Last start 7th of 10 at Muswellbrook Ctry Mdn on November 2 over 1500m, slow going 4.5 len behind Heapy's Legacy carrying 58kg at $4.40. The race before that 3rd of 9 at Armidale Mdn on October 25 over 1100m, 0.7 len behind Tourtel carrying 55kg at $6.50. This looks a far more suitable assignment so watch for a spike in form. |

BINDAREE LASS
KYLIE KENNEDY 5YO BAY MARE 56.0KG P J Burnheim Comes here off a 37-day let-up. Most recently raced on speed throughout when 2nd of 9 at Narromine Mdn-Sw on October 18 over 1100m, 0.6 len behind Elderberry Wine with 57kg at $17. The race before that 5th of 11 at Dubbo Ctry Mdn on October 3 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Silver Chair with 54.5kg at $151. Will probably find this assignment beyond her. |

Worth another chance with conditions more favourable. |
