Verdict

BUNDORAN (2) recorded a ninth career minor placing, and a third from three runs this prep, when beaten under a length over this distance on a soft track at Tamworth last start. Testing the patience but the numbers say this is her big chance to break through. THE LAST ROMANOV (6) finished alongside Bundoran at Tamworth last time out after coming from midfield in the early and middle stages. Has been up for a while but continues to perform well. Doubt there will be a lot between the pair again today. TOTALLY UNDERRATED (9) got going late to finish fifth in that same race at Tamworth recently. Is third-up here and has more improvement to come than the key rivals today. Cannot be underestimated. MOON DART (1) started at $1.65 and led but found one better near the line when resuming over 5 ½f at Narromine last start. This is a tougher maiden but he should roll forward and play a big part again. DIACCETO (3) trialled well at Tamworth recently and is next best off a 27-week spell.
