Solid tempo with Marvel Man leading from Earl Of Bantry and Starane. EARL OF BANTRY (9) had an excellent first prep for the stable and resumes after winning two of his three runs last spring. Has trialled well and though coming off a longish break looks promising enough. Go well. MARVEL MAN (4) is on a hat-trick after successive wins at Bathurst over the 1100m. Racing in great form and has to be considered a major chance. PLENITUDE (8) was a little disappointing last time at Narromine after an excellent run prior at Dubbo. Down in weight and has a senior rider on so keep in mind. SMART AND DAPPER (1) and COELLA (10) are more than capable of showing up with the right run. SUGGESTED PLAY: Earl Of Bantry to win.

In-form and if he can stretch out in trip will be hard to catch. |
