Expecting Shoreman to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. OUR JEWEL (9) is another decent winning chance for the Joe Pride stable. She resumed in good order at Gosford before a plain run at Wyong on a heavy surface. Fitter again and McDougall is a positive jockey booking. Expect her to appreciate the poly and come hard. SHOREMAN (7) is free running and best to forgive his Sapphire Coast effort last time (vet cleared). The shorter sprint suits better sand fitter he will take catching. Stablemate SNUBA (12) peaks and would be a hope if she found her best. May sit closer today with the first-time blinkers applied, and she has upside. IRISH JIG (3) is third-up and drops back to a sprint. He has the first time blinkers applied and should have the early speed to manage the wide barrier. An improved effort is likely. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Our Jewel.
