Verdict

DIDIE'S MEADOW (2) ran well on debut last start to miss by a head in second at Grafton. Is sure to have come from that and is drawn kinder - she shouldn't be a maiden for long. RIGHTEOUS BROTHER (7) found the line nicely last start to finish a close third at Murwillumbah when returning. Will likely drift back again from the draw but with a decent tempo he can reel them in. BANG ITS ON (1) is a three-year-old Duporth gelding on debut from Bowen stable. Comes here off a Grafton trial placing. Can make his presence felt immediately. DRAHOMIRA (3) was sound on debut but strips fitter and should appreciate the rise in trip. In the mix.
