Showtime Sassy and Maxandus should set a strong clip. CASSIERE (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1000m at Scone, beaten 3.5 lengths. Finds an easier assignment and ready to win. THE DUX NUTS (4) is back at the races for the first time since July 17. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1200m at Quirindi. Has ability and should be right in the finish. HIPPEASTRUM (10) scored a turf track win two back over 1100m at Gulargambone then followed up with a minor placing on dirt over 1220m at Barraba most recently. Will be hard to beat again. MAXANDUS (2) finished second last start over 1000m at Collarenebri, beaten 1.3 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he deserves his chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Cassiere has the class to put these away.
