Returns from a five-month break with two trials behind him, including a latest third at Muswellbrook. He ended last campaign with a BM66 seventh at this track, beaten eight and a half lengths at big odds, though his previous fifth here had more merit after being held up. Fitted with the two trials and has to lift.

Returns from a six-month break after building a tidy four-start record last campaign, with one win and two placings. His latest fourth in a Class 1 at this track had some merit after a bump near the 300m, and the run prior he was sent out favourite before charging into second at Tamworth. Back with the one trial and Class 1 form last campaign reads well for this.

Backs up quickly after finishing seventh at Muswellbrook on soft ground, beaten four and a half lengths at long odds. His prior eighth in a BM66 there was only fair after giving away a start, but this old gelding is race fit and handles wet ground with two wins and twelve placings from 32 attempts. Place hopes look stronger than win claims.

Produced a strong last-start win in a Class 1 at the Beaumont, beginning slowly before sprinting clear to beat Albert's Pick by just over three lengths on soft ground. That followed a closing fifth over 1000m at Muswellbrook, so she has worked into the campaign nicely. With the winning rider back, she is a genuine danger again.

Was near the top of betting but could manage only eighth at Muswellbrook last week, beaten four and a half lengths after being slow to begin. He was also a well-supported favourite when fifth at Beaumont (newcastle) six days earlier, making steady late ground without threatening. Quick back-up gives him a place chance.

Reaches the third run of the campaign after a seventh at Beaumont (newcastle), where he settled well back and was just fair late when beaten four and a half lengths. His first-up sixth in a Class 1 at Dubbo was similar, making some impression from a long way back. Improver from the better draw.

Has been well held in recent starts, finishing ninth at Muswellbrook over 1000m when beaten just over six lengths at big odds. The start prior was an eighth in a BM66 at Armidale, again conceding a huge start and only fair through the line. Outclassed.

Made an excellent debut at this track and distance, winning a Mdn by just over a length on soft ground as the odds-on favourite. He settled just off the lead, travelled well and lengthened strongly to beat Oakfield Virginia, suggesting there is natural improvement to come second-up. More depth now, but the profile is progressive and he looks the one to beat.

Returns from a three-month break after a plain finish to last campaign, when second last in a BM50 at Dubbo and unwanted in the market. She had also been beaten just under ten lengths at Narromine, so the recent form line is not attractive. Her 1200m record gives her minor claims with the good fresh record.

Finished last at Muswellbrook over 1000m last week, beaten just over seven lengths at big odds after being slow to begin. The previous seventh in a BM50 at Inverell on heavy ground was no stronger, with another slow start noted. The claim helps, but others bring far stronger form.

Was slow to begin, covered ground and finished ninth at the Beaumont last start, beaten five and a half lengths on soft ground at big odds. Her prior fifth in a Class 2 at Muswellbrook was better, picking up well and not beaten far behind Missile Magnate. Needs to find a few lengths.

Was ninth at Muswellbrook last week, beaten just under six lengths at long odds, continuing a flat run of form. Two back she finished sixth in a BM50 at Inverell after blundering on jumping, but she still made little impact. Hard to recommend.

Comes through a BM82 at this track where he was bumped at the start and finished last, beaten just under ten lengths at 151.0. The start prior was another last here, when awkward away and wide throughout before weakening out. Unlikely on recent runs.

Placed first-up in a Class 1 at Beaumont (newcastle), but the margin was still just under six lengths behind Kermitisapet and he was sent around at big odds. His previous run at Tamworth was much worse, finishing last and well beaten by 21 lengths. Some 1200m placing form, but the win task looks difficult.

Reaches the third run of the campaign after a Muswellbrook third over 1000m, where he began awkwardly and was still well back before finishing in the frame. The prior fifth in a Class 1 at Tamworth was stronger than it reads, beaten just over half a length after starting near the top of betting. Barrier 1 and 1200m form keep him right in the race.
