Strong pace from Take The Jackpot, Territories Spirit and Whispering Muriel, with He's My Warrior and Sir Herridah on their heels.
SIR HERRIDAH (7) was an impressive maiden winner first-up over 1100m at Dubbo then found 1000m at Muswellbrook too sharp for him last start. Looking for this distance now so a return to form is on the cards. HE'S MY WARRIOR (1) went to the front in a foreign role for him and kept going to score a dominant victory when resuming over this trip at Tamworth last time out. Saves his best for 1200m. Big chance again in an easier race. MY ANGEL SHELL (5) missed the kick and was never a factor when fresh from a spell over 1000m at Scone recently, the first run since transferring to Jane Clement. More at home over 1200m and with better gate manners can play a key role. THE MYSTERY GUY (10) hasn't won for about four years so his eye-catcher at Dubbo last start should be taken in context. Exotics only. LORD OF THE SUN (2) did a fine job winning over 1100m at Armidale last start. Getting up in the weights but cannot be overlooked. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Sir Herridah.
