Verdict

SHEMAKESMENERVOUS (8) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 8 lengths away in tenth over 6 ½f at Mackay. Finds a more suitable assignment this time and can turn things around. GALATH (1) showed good early pace over 5f at Longreach last time and kept going to score by 1.3 lengths. Will be high on confidence now and can find the winner's circle. VIKING TREASURE (9) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 2.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 5f at Tambo. Must raise the bar but a win is not out of the question. AUGUST JOE (3) will be fitter for the fresh effort and the lone career win came the only time he raced here. Improver.
