Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by All Too Rosey. AYE AYE SKIPPER (3) holding his form and will appreciate the big class drop from the low draw. Handled the rise in grade with a close-up fifth over 1250m at Taree in C$ company. Deep into the prep and finds his race. WANJINA ROSE (4) tough old mare who retains her zest for racing. Savaged the line from the wide gate with a narrow second over 1183m at Grafton. Has a good record over this track and trip and due for a change of luck. COCO DREAMING (2) in need of the run from the lengthy break with a plugging seventh over 1000m at Ballina. Will appreciate the extra journey and stays in the mix with the 3kg claim. Look for her launching late. DIRTY DOES IT (9) improved sharply at start seven with a dominant Maiden victory over 1100m at this track. Maps well and expected to be thereabouts again. MAGGIE SPARKLES (13) slow into stride and never looked a genuine chance with a battling fifth over 1400m at Taree. Firmer surface helps and assess on the minor placing two-back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Aye Aye Skipper is expected to salute.
