Expecting a strong tempo over this journey. Tough way to end the day. JEWELS STATEMENT (2) will find this more to her liking with the drop in weight and the winkers going on. Trained locally and was six weeks between runs when a disappointing last over 1125m here. Kept fresh again and assess on her good victory here three back. Each way chance. SO ROSIE (8) going nicely through her grades and chasing her fourth straight win. Returned a good set of figures on resumption when a determined nose winner over 1000m at Tamworth. Can progress to this level with the right run. WHAT A RUSH (12) exciting filly who will need a good ride from the draw today. Demolished her rivals by 5 lens over 1208m at Port Macquarie. Goes close if she can get early cover. RETHINK IT (13) down sharply in weight and trip and has each way claims in this tougher contest. Not to be discounted. CRITICAL TIME (1) is a consistent gelding resuming. Maps to get the right run and can produce fresh. The chances don't end there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Jewels Statement each way.
