Verdict

SILVER TEMPEST (1) has an okay record and mixing his form in stronger company. Went under narrowly two back at Hawkesbury, then anchored with the 130lbs when a battling eighth over 1m at Wyong in BM64 class. Rates among the leading chances at this level. BRAZEN CRIME (2) drifted back early when resuming over the unsuitable trip with an ordinary ninth at this track on August 3. Second up record is sound and gets in light with Cahill's 4lbs claim. Sharp improver. COSTABIT (4) just over three weeks between runs when he struggled to close off with a plugging seventh over 1m at Wyong. Drops in grade and assess on earlier efforts. HEART BALM (6) tough country gelding on the quick backup. Sat on the fast tempo before fading to finish fourth over 1m at Narrandera. Sure to give a sight with the key jockey change.
