Reasonable tempo with Danish Fortune probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. WAKU WAKU (5) good type who can go on with it this campaign. Thrown in the deep end when no match for Declichy Boulevard, finishing tenth over 1400m at Randwick in BM78 class. Well placed today with the claim and can give this a mighty shake. HULU (4) has gone to a new level this time and is chasing her third win from her last five starts here. Covered ground from the outside gate with a courageous nose win nose as fav over 1300m at Scone. Gets map favours and can win again. DALE (10) saves his best for this track and trip and comes here in peak condition. Kept up to the mark with a 1200m trial at Beaumont (Newcastle) and was given a short break after finishing tenth over 1600m at Scone. Kept ticking over since that run with a trial at Beaumont (Newcastle). Can stalk the speed and return to form. BALLINDERRY SAL (9) up in trip and grade with a battling tenth over 1600m in the Gunnedah Cup. Finds an easier race and near her top for this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 5,4,10.
