Expecting Akauwheo to take up the running with Ready And Lucky and Kayz Time close at hand. OAKFIELD NEPTUNE (3) won on Newcastle on debut as expected and then went back and placed as favourite in a CL1. Strips fitter and Bullock sticking aboard is a plus. She's been kept on the fresh side and is the one to beat, READY AND LUCKY (9) rates right up to this, but the speedy mare has to push over from an awkward barrier. She's third up, briefly freshened and is in an in-form stable. DOLLY JAYNE (14) found more like her best, just missing at Moree, and maps for the run in the race. Sits at the bottom of the handicap and deserves consideration. CHAMPERS GIRL (1) led and won a 66 at Mudgee and then took a sit at Warren and lacked finishing dash. She is capable of using the inside barrier and should be around the mark. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Oakfield Neptune.
