   ( J- Opie Bosson )

  F: 32X51   B(6)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  3 Nuncio  

  F: 6610X   B(10)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Terry Moseley )

   ( T- Les Didham )

  Showed promise and ability to win two from 9 starts last year but clearly there were issue as it has been off the track for 10 months. Looks back to best though in winning a trial to prepare

  Consider

  

  5 Chlobon  

  F: 12   B(5)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Matthew Cameron )

   ( T- Danny Crozier )

  Won its trial prior to winning in a competitive field on debut in June. Looks capable and has Matt Cameron up to add to its chances today, now resuming

  F: 464X5   B(2)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- John Blackadder )

  Although 3 lengths behind Return Flight when resuming, it was a good run and it represents the 'value', with Hayley Hassman taking over and bringing the 3kg claim

  Main Danger

  

  3 Mr Bully Tee  

  Dividend : $3.80, $1.50

  Won

  F: 62724   B(6)  W(57.5)

  F: 35251   B(8)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Yogesh Atchamah )

   ( T- Brian & Shane Anderton )

  Corey Campbell continues to ride well and he got this one home in a tight finish last start. Now this good apprentice takes over and the extra 200m should suit

  Consider

  

  6 Return Flight  

  Dividend : $1.40

  Place

  F: 40013   B(1)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Kelvin Tyler )

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Was 1 1/2 lengths behind Persona last time after being slow away. Opie rides today from a better draw so things could be close

  Won

  F: 85712   B(1)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- Lance Robinson )

  After leading all the way up the straight and looking like holding on, got run out of it by a nose last start. It really is an improved galloper and inside draw would suggest it gets the perfect run today

  Consider

   ( J- Yogesh Atchamah )

  8 Morus  

  F: 44528   B(4)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Lyn Prendergast )

  We're always interested in runners on the quick back up as their strike rate is good. With Michael McNab interest, Kylie Williams is reunited and knows the horse well

  1 Flat Stanley  

  F: 123X8   B(2)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Matthew Cameron )

  F: X940X   B(3)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Sam Weatherley )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Twice a winner fresh up, this looks like the Pitman's best chance today, resuming after a 5 month spell. Sam Weatherley has a few rides for the stable today and is worth following

  F: 225X6   B(5)  W(62.5)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

  Place

  F: 1X   B(1)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Vinnie Colgan )

   ( T- Samantha Finnegan )

  A cracking field for today's feature and many chances. This northern filly was at long odds but impressive when winning its only race here back in April. Scratched a few weeks ago and now resumes on the back of an impressive win at the trials

  4 Belle Du Monde  

  F: 220X1   B(2)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

   ( J- George Rooke )

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Was an exciting prospected in its first couple of seasons but hasn't really met those expectations in recent times. But was impressive when winning with something in hand here two weeks ago and, given its not a strong field, can back that up here

  F: 28364   B(5)  W(57.5)

   ( J- George Rooke )
