Verdict

CUESTA (3) is unlucky not to have a few more wins on the CV and can get the better of these today third-up. Stalked the speed and presented at the right time when she failed to go on with it, finishing fifth over 1200m at Wyong. Key jockey change and ready for this trip and further now. Hard to stop from the draw. CALL ME SASSY (5) ran below expectations last time at Hawkesbury after blowing the start to run a battling seventh over 1300m at Hawkesbury. Tommy Berry retains the ride and is expected to bounce back quickly. ROSE OF FENWAY (6) gave them a galloping lesson first-up over this trip on the Illawarra Grange, then went out quickly before folding up in the straight to run third over 1400m here. Likely leader who will give a ton of cheek. Each way. ONMALONE (1) jumped in grade second-up and never looked comfortable in the heavy going with a plugging fifth over 1200m at Canterbury in BM64 class. Finds a firmer track and winning rider hops back aboard.
