Jason Darren has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. JASON DARREN (4) likes to run along and after a tidy return at Beaumont (Newcastle) the fitness gave out late at Taree stepping up to this distance. Has a low gate and more to offer. JVO is a key jockey engagement replacing the 3kg apprentice. STOCKHOLM (6) improved sharply to score by 1.3 lengths over 1300m at this track four weeks ago. Has a low barrier today and just has to repeat that effort to threaten. MRS BULL (2) resumed beaten 1.2L over 1200m at Wyong after she got a long way back in the run. Won't be bothered by this longer journey and has a handy 3kg claim in easier grade. Right in the mix. SIDENAY (5) just missed delivering a hat-trick over 1400m at Mudgee in a 66. The 3kg helps back in grade offset some of the weight rise and he could bounce without surprise. DIVINE SINNER (7) won as a short-priced favourite at Orange but will need luck in this line-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Jason Darren appeals most.
