A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. TELLING (4) is improving and was beaten less than 2L at Gosford 24 days ago. Has an awkward gate to contend with, but he finds the right race and can break back. Fellow Sydneysider SUPAIRO (8) missed a nose at Nowra last time at 58 level as favourite, and carries 3kg less in this. Rates well enough to feature. THE EYES HAVE IT (16) sits at the bottom of the weights and is a hope now that she gets a start. Has an in-form jockey aboard, and his Maiden win two back reads well enough. CASHBOOK (2) impressed when winning at Gundagai and steps out to this trip for the first time. Has a handy 3kg claim and the blinkers on for the first time. This is well within his scope. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Telling.
